Twigg Residence
While we’ve been working away on the Hill House, we also produced the Twigg Residence. This project is in for permitting and scheduled to break ground soon as well. Not only is the timing similar, but Twigg is located near the Hill House as well. Twigg also incorporates some of the same energy efficient features such as: staggered stud wall framing, flash and batt insulation techniques, Warmboard hydronic radiant heat, HRV for fresh air, rainscreen siding and thoughtful use of low maintenance / environmentally preferred products. Mechanical heating and cooling is provided by an extremely efficient reverse chiller. The site constraints for Twigg were not as tight as Hill House which allowed us to orient and shape the house to take advantage as much as possible of passive heating / cooling / ventilating strategies. Another exciting feature, Twigg received grant funding from the city for an eco-roof as well.
