This week team Breathe paid a visit to our residential project Black Street to witness an air tightness test take place. Air tightness is a major component of Passive House, a voluntary standard for energy efficiency in a building. Along with our clients, we’re big believers in reducing a home’s ecological footprint. The team was on site to see the “blower door test” - this happens when all the membranes, windows & doors are in but before the wall lining is applied, so that any leaks can be prepared prior to lining. We can’t wait to see how this home performs once completed! . . #breathe#breathearchitecture#architecture#passivehouse#sustainability#design#blowerdoortest#melbourne#team

Want a tight envelope without spray foam? Zip-R sheathing from @huberwood has rigid foam bonded to Zip System Sheathing. Once it’s taped and sealed you’ve got a good air barrier on the outside and you break the thermal bridge at the studs, then insulate those stud bays with @rockwoolna ! Tight and well insulated! #architecture by @forgexcraft & @treythefarmer #build by @cleantagllc See the Build Show I did on this soon to be rated #passivehouse #remodel

Hemp blocks are by far the most ecological way to upgrade your existing structures. By combining hemp blocks and bricks we see vast improvements to the brick structures thermal mass properties and U-value. Bricks are already energy efficient because they hold sunlight throughout the day and release that energy after the sun goes down. The breathability of hempcrete keeps the brick structure dry, adds extra insulation and thermal mass ensuring energy efficient walls that create a healthy internal environment by helping to prevent common problems like mould growth and dampness. By adding as little as 90 mm of hemp blocks to a 230mm brick structure (internally or externally) we are seeing improvements in wall U-value of up to 75 %. These results are amazing and because our hemp blocks are bio degradable there is no landfill or waste, meaning a carbon negative retro fit that’s good for you and the environment.

On the left Intiland Tower in Jakarta by Paul Rudolph built in 1982 (image source: Paul Rudolph Foundation). Since a while we try to promote reduction of glazed surfaces, more overhangs and plants in our designs for office towers to reduce passive heat gains and increase livability. History shows it’s possible. . . #highrise #tropicalhighrise #solarheatgain #sustainableconstruction #greenbuilding #tower #shauarchitects #passivehouse #tropics #paulrudolph

A new view of our Haven Sectional. It's right at home in the "passive house," a New Jersey home built to use 80% less energy than a conventionally built home. Take a look inside with the link in bio! #familyfriendly #passivehouse #passivehomes

Dance floor on and airtightness wrap complete. I decided to use the steel as part of my airtightness strategy on this one. It helps to suffer from OCD when doing airtightness!! Got our temporary stairs in too. we install some airtightness wrap here also and the service batten so when it comes time to install the remaining airtightness membrane the stairs won’t have to come down. #airtightness #framersareadyingbreed #framerlife #framing #passivehouse #steel #carpentry #longlifestructures

One of our latest designs for Summit Park, psyched to have the Purkey family in the hood. #passivehouse inspired detailing, nestled into the Forrest. #rendering #mountainmodern #matterhaus
