AN ITALIANATE DREAM

Although technically an addition to an existing house, this project featured extensive re-building of an historic home with an addition that was built as a new house. This beautiful home featured re-production of classic Italianate gingerbread molding and structural elements with new work consistent with the era. With highly advanced structural and mechanical systems, this house uses a fraction of the energy that it would if constructed in a typical fashion.

*The HERS Index is a scoring system for a home’s energy efficiency, like an MPG sticker for a motor vehicle. HERS starts with an average home for a point of reference called the “HERS Reference Home” which is valued at a HERS Index of 100. On the other side of the spectrum, the most energy efficient, net zero energy home scores a HERS Index of 0. Each point below the benchmark of 100 represents 1% of gain in energy efficiency.


**An EUI is the energy consumed (Btu) within a building divided by its total square feet. An EUI is a relative measure of how efficient a home is, with a lower number being better.
