Case StudyPhotos:
Project Type: Family residence Built by: Steve Vessey Where: Seven Hills, 3 miles SE of Fairfield
Built in: 2003 FAQS: Timber frame made with mostly local lumber. Cellulose insulation. A solar room on the south side absorbs extra sunlight. Radiant floors provide heating and cooling. A wood stove adds additional heat, although proven practically unnecessary.
Residence Comments: "In the middle of winter I ran around the house in a bikini. My step-dad wanted to use the wood stove and we actually had to open the windows." |
