What we build
For our projects we utilize the most advanced building technologies, materials and products, as well as the best practices from the past to make sure that the houses we build will last for decades, require low maintenance, and have highest level of performance:
- Insulated Concrete Form Construction (ICF)
- Advanced Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Systems
- Reliable Building Envelope
- Energy Efficient Insulation and Mechanical Systems
Concrete construction
Insulated Concrete Form Construction (ICF) provides the most efficient exterior wall system with air/moisture tight solid concrete core and two layers of high performance insulation (up to R-40 effective value)
Years of research and application have proved that ICF homes have:
Years of research and application have proved that ICF homes have:
- Highest level of energy performance
- Solid, durable and long-lasting concrete structure
- Walls and structural elements which are not affected by water penetration and termites
- High performance in case of fire/ storms/ earthquakes
- Maintenance free structural elements and walls.
Energy Performance
We use innovative and high performance technologies and systems to ensure that our homes are energy efficient, have small or no CO2 footprint and meet highest requirements for green buildings:
- High efficient thermal insulation
- Air tight exterior concrete walls
- High performance windows and doors
- Geothermal systems
- Heat recovery ventilation (HRV)
- Heat pump / Air conditioning systems
Building Envelope
One of the most crucial parts of a house is an efficient building envelope which can protect the house from harmful impact of external factors. Effective building envelope systems become especially important in the tough conditions of coastal climate, where the house is exposed to extreme moisture conditions. We utilize proven building solutions, materials and elements to ensure effectiveness of building envelope systems:
- high performance rain-screen systems
- extensive use of natural stone
- metal roofing
- aluminum cladding and metal siding
- limited use of wood (only where it's not exposed to moisture)
