urban homestead for a family of four
Our clients wanted a low energy home in Downtown Hood River. We designed a series of buildings around an outdoor living space and lush vegetable gardens. The design incorporates a vernacular building mass, materials and details towards the street with a modern living space and entry on the back half, blending in with the historic neighborhood with a modern twist.
Twenty four solar panels on the roof and a
high-efficiency building envelope allow the property to operate net-zero
