Text description provided by the architects. Renovation and conversion of existing commercial building for retail use plus addition of duplex single family home above.The design is an attempt to create a passive solar house to minimize heating and cooling costs.We achieved this by constructing a well-insulated building shell out of the Insulated Concrete Forms building system and a large south-facing triple-insulated glass facade which leads to a roof garden on top of the retail space.
