Green building initiatives can be beautiful inside and outside! The traditional interior green wall is a smart way of implementing biophilic elements into any new build, but have you heard of exterior green walls? At New Earth Solutions, we have encountered a trend in urban areas where builders are looking for new ways to implement sustainability on the exterior of buildings. A trellis-style system is an easy and approachable way to gentrify older structures while decreasing the carbon footprint by negating the "Heat Island Effect". The "Heat Island Effect" cools down and heats the interior of buildings in urban areas; ultimately costing the occupants and owners significant amounts in ventilation overhead. An exterior trellis element helps enclose the current temperature inside buildings while giving an aesthetic look to the exterior!

🏔️ Dreaming of your perfect mountain retreat? At NW Roots Construction, we specialize in bringing your vision to life amidst the serene backdrop of the mountains. Performing due diligence and supporting your project goals are at the center of our design build approach. Based on our experience, and seeing recent changes in building codes, climate conditions becoming more extreme and the improvement of building science in general, before you embark on designing your dream mountain home, consider these essential tips: 1. **Embrace the View**: Design large, strategic windows to capture the breathtaking views. Let nature's beauty be the focal point of your home. Although remember, windows (fenestration) are major culprits when designing an efficient hope as they require additional support from your heating and cooling systems. 2. **Sustainable Materials**: Opt for local, sustainable materials that blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings, ensuring durability against the elements while respecting the environment. Our team is mindful of products during design, our aim is to provide as many details, not too small overwhelm the process, but to ensure our clients are aware and of all the options! 3. **Efficient Insulation**: Mountain climates can be harsh. High-quality insulation and efficient heating solutions are key to keeping your home cozy all year round. 4. **Outdoor Spaces**: Incorporate decks, patios, or balconies to enjoy the fresh mountain air and stunning vistas. It's all about indoor-outdoor living. 5. **Respect the Terrain**: Work with the land, not against it. Designing your home to fit the terrain reduces the need for extensive landscaping and helps preserve the natural beauty of your property. At NW Roots Construction, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with building in mountainous areas. Let us guide you in creating a home that's not just a place to live, but a sanctuary that complements its majestic setting. We are guaranteed to have fun and happy to teach along the way! 🏡💚 #MountainHomeDesign #SustainableLiving #NWRootsConstruction #DreamHome #EcoFriendlyBuilding #buildingscientists #suncadia #designbuild #customhomebuilder #centralwashington #centraloregon

It becomes more pedestrian-friendly! Designing areas where people can walk and dine outdoors without concerns about cars increases foot traffic. Businesses like cafes and restaurants thrive on attracting people, not vehicles. Unless you're specifically a car-related service like a gas station or car wash, attracting more people to pass by your establishment is advantageous. 📍Stephen Ave, Calgary, Alberta #yyc #yycliving #architecture #urbanplanning #planning #urbandesign #design

🏡 Discover The Cowshed: Elevating Heritage in Somerset! 🌿 The Cowshed, nestled in the heart of Somerset, stands as a testament to transformation and modern living. An extension and re-model of a previously converted cowshed, this project was designed in-house by Greenheart. 🏗️ A Journey of Design Excellence: This building and plot underwent a thorough design process, exploring various options, including demolition/new-build and multiple iterations of the final design. 🌟 Key Factors in the Chosen Scheme: The chosen scheme focused on maximising the use of the existing building.

The design prioritised creating spacious and varied living spaces, offering breathtaking views across the fields to the south. ☀️ Client-Centric Priorities: Daylighting and indoor air quality took centre stage, addressing the client's concerns stemming from a lack of both in the existing structure. 🌿 A Sustainable Solution Unveiled: The Cowshed boasts an airtight, highly insulated building envelope, complemented by high-performance windows, MVHR, and a heat pump. This just-finished, economical build has proven to be a great success, marrying sustainability with modern comfort. 🏡 Preserving Heritage, Embracing Modernity: Greenheart's in-house design expertise has seamlessly merged heritage with modernity, breathing new life into a historical structure. #TheCowshed #GreenheartHomes #HeritageTransformation #SustainableLiving
