We are small-footprint livability experts. From net zero energy pocket neighborhoods to tiny house cooperative villages to custom passive homes, we take pride in building zero- and low-carbon housing that fosters community. Whatever the project, our ethos is the same: a home should nourish your spirit, your neighborhood, and your ecosystem.
We are affordable homeownership incubators. We design and develop innovative middle housing that expands neighborhood diversity and accessibility while improving walkability. Whether you’re an investor or a property owner, we can help you use your resources to benefit your community without sacrificing your bottom line.
We are passive house innovators—our founder helped write the original passive house modeling software. From large multi-unit residential buildings and office headquarters to single-family dwellings, we work with architecture firms and developers large and small to realize passive house projects certified by both Phius and PHI. Our unique approach draws on our boots-on-the-ground experience as architects, developers, and builders: We understand the real-world implications of our spreadsheets; we know how to deliver high-performance, passive house buildings as cost-effectively as possible; and we achieve our clients’ goals through engaged, proactive collaboration with your project team.
