Nowadays, It’s completely doable to create a comfortable and beautiful new home that actually gives back to the environment more than it takes.

We believe in building spaces that reduce environmental impact and simultaneously enhance the quality of life. Here are a few (of the many) design features that can transform your home into an eco-friendly haven, perfect for a lifestyle that nurtures both you and the environment.
CLT / Mass Timber Structure: Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) and mass timber are building materials made of renewable lumber that are ideal for designing and constructing new modern homes. These materials benefit the sustainability, versatility, and aesthetic appeal of a home and contribute to forest health by promoting sustainable forestry practices and reducing reliance on non-renewable building materials.
Geothermal Heating/Cooling System: Geothermal heating and cooling systems take advantage of the earth's stable underground temperatures by pumping water through subterranean pipes then back up to an indoor handling unit that naturally distributes heat in the winter and cooling in the summer months.
Green Roof: A green roof is simply a way of recreating the displaced natural landscape on top of your home. Beyond the obvious aesthetic benefits of these natural roofs, there are many environmental and wellness benefits to them as well including added insulation, reducing noise pollution, and re-creating biological habitats.
