Hi Bob
Congrats on the passive house certification.
I’ve really enjoyed reading your blog.
I wonder if you’ve seen Fibertec Fiberglass Window and Door Mfg for Passive House Projects? We’re used quite often in zero energy and passive homes along with other energy efficient projects in North America.
I’d love to get your thoughts and opinions – http://www.fibertec.com is our website or you can call me at 888.232.4956

Kind Regards,

Josh

i like the idea of a tiny living room and a big kitchen. why not? hearth room. quiet, out of the bustle of the kitchen.

quick, dirty and fairly accurate but rather computery. It pins down some stuff to think on further – which it was intended for. I suppose I could sketch over it and make it more “architecty” too. I’ll take it back to the site next time I go to see how it feels.

I did this project several years ago for friends. Very limited drawings. Helped build the porches on the Northeast end a few years ago. It’s mostly built according to specs.

wondered if you were checking. I stopped at the site with Abigail Von Fluffelrump for a few mornings which was incredibly helpful. I’, going to go over it a bit today and add some notes and thought and send it along before the weekend. Some good stuff!

Wow!!! Boy was I surprised to see this image! I didn’t recognize it right away. But then I double clicked on it to see the full image. “Hmmm… that looks strangely familiar. Hold on!” Yay. Linda has gone to bed, but I can surprise her in the morning. Thanks!

oooo! – I’ll check it out. I was vaguely aware of it. Yestermorrow is doing great stuff. I have been watching them since my college days and I wish I lived closer in order to get more involved. Perhaps worth a blog post at some point.
