• High Performance Characteristics
• Site
• Building massing and orientation promote natural
  daylighting and cross ventilation
• Building was sited to preserved existing stand of
  old growth long leaf pine trees
• Utilized indigenous vegetation (zero water use)
  and preserved native habitat
• On site water retention with naturally vegetated
  swales, permeable paving for all driveways and
  walkways
• Minimized heat island effect with nominal
  exterior hardscape, and exterior materials that
  reflect solar radiation
• Indoor Environmental Quality
• Low VOC emitting ceramic tile through-out the
  house
• Wall and ceiling assemblies were designed to
  mitigate sound transmission between rooms
• Connection to outdoors is emphasized by large
  floor to ceiling windows
• Flexible interior layout allows for future
  adaptability of space
• Natural daylighting throughout building
• Energy and Atmosphere
• Passive Shading provided by deep overhangs
• Passive Cooling strategy utilizing operable
  clerestory windows and natural cross-ventilation
• Building orientation, room depth, and large
  clerestory windows promote daylight harvesting
