The Comfort Houses
Architects are obliged to design and build in a responsible and
far-sighted manner. Homes will stand for years to come, forming the
framework around our lives, which affects ourselves as well as the
environment.
Therefore the idea of passive houses is a big step in the right direction
for protecting the environment.
Completed in 2008, this single family house will be situated alongside 9
other passive houses in the serene Vejle Ådal area.
The project will push the boundaries of traditional sustainable housing,
and demonstrate that visionary architecture and energy efficiency aren’t
necessarily contradictory forces.
Focusing on energy and indoor climate, the 220 m2 single family house
is constructed using solid wood elements for walls, floorplates and
roofing alike.
