RECLAIMED SIDING. Siding—
about 1.25 inches thick—is
made from reclaimed
Juniper cedar. This gives the
home a long-lasting exterior,
while preserving forestlands.

HIDDEN ASSETS. Walls consist
of carbon-sequestering insulation
—including a cork exterior and
cellulose cavity—which help the
home earn a Home Energy Rating
System (HERS) Index score of 0.

THE RIGHT GLASS.
Triple pane, argon-filled,
low e-glass windows
with a solar heat gain
coefficient (SHGC)
of 0.43 and U-Factor
of 0.15 keep the
home’s heat loss and
gain at a minimum
during winter and
summer, respectively.
