Project Description
Located on the site of a former quarry, the project has numerous unique site considerations that were both obstacles and opportunities. The site has a fantastic view and ample solar access for both daylighting and the use of photovoltaics, but was also susceptible to glare as well as potentially unstable soils. The project team performed multiple daylighting studies throughout the design phase and worked closely with our geotechnical and structural consultants to produce a house that is very close to being completely off grid. Using on-site water capture, photovoltaics and a tight, energy efficient design, the house needs very little artificial daylighting during the daylight hours without significant glare or heat gain.
