Our new 12 classroom block at Windy Ridge School in Auckland is pushing on, despite last week’s storm washing half the excavated footings away!
.
The project is aiming to raise the bar on energy and thermal performance for schools in New Zealand, with fully insulated foundations, a thermally broken steel structural frame and a balanced mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery ensuring energy efficiency, and a healthy interior environment for the kids to learn and grow in.
.
Unfortunately thermally broken joinery, and a structure with lower embodied carbon such as mass timber didn’t quite make the cut this time, but every step forward is a positive one.

An excellent evening was had last week at the @homemagazine.nz Home of the Year 2022 awards, with great food, drinks and company!
.
We were honoured for @lowersaddlepassivehouse to be a finalist in the ‘Green Home’ category, among the range of beautiful projects that made up the finalists and winners. With the increasingly severe warnings from the IPCC though, we are looking forward hopefully to performance, energy and carbon efficiency enjoying equal importance to beauty in future awards

It’s the last few days to vote in the @homemagazine.nz Readers Choice Home of the Year 2022! ‪We’re very grateful that our @lowersaddlepassivehouse project is included, sitting beside the other wonderful homes. ‬
‪.‬
‪Lower Saddle is a warm, dry and healthy Certified Passive House, with low embodied and operational carbon, built on an absolutely bare bones budget, modelled on the NZ rural rustic vernacular of back country huts to provide a home for RA Architect @josephlyth and his family. The project aims to show that in a world of expensive, unhealthy, minimum code homes or high budget, one off houses, it is possible to achieve beauty and performance at smaller budgets by prioritising where the upfront costs are spent.‬
‪.‬
‪Joe and his family were an active part of the construction, building sinks, countertops and kitchens, ferrying materials, taping holes and sanding plywood - you name it! After moving into the ‘shell’ 9 months ago, the whole family are gradually finishing off, developing, ‬inhabiting, and growing into the interior spaces; ‪turning the high performance house into a truly comfortable home.‬
