Studio Moren’s certified PassivHaus Designers
In our 30th year in practice, we are as committed as ever to designing and building beautiful and sustainable buildings. To take a step further in gearing up for a carbon-neutral future, two of our staff, Anna and Bryan, have recently undertaken training to design buildings that use considerably less energy to operate than modern buildings, without compromising on occupant comfort. This is also known as designing to a Passive House standard.
Passive House is a voluntary standard designed to build ultra-low energy buildings. Its principles include a range of approaches for undertaking new-build and refurbishment projects that balance the energy they absorb from internal and external sources (gains), with the energy that leaves through building fabric (losses). The Passive House approach leads to time and cost savings by developing robust, high-performance and often simpler building details that are easier to build. This ensures buildings stay warm and cool throughout the year without requiring conventional heating and cooling methods.
Studio Moren are excited about working with our clients to implement Passive House principles in designing buildings that get, and stay, ahead of the evolving landscapes of carbon neutrality and climate change.
