Proposed Session Description
The Meadows in Hampton Falls, New Hampshire is a 72-unit, senior apartment campus that, once complete, will be among just a handful of passive house multi-family projects in New England. Thanks to close collaboration between the owner and design/construction team through all stages of the project, it will also be a model of both high-performance and affordability. In this panel presentation, the developer, architect and contractor will discuss why wood framing was chosen to meet passive house levels of energy efficiency, details that reduced budget while meeting core objectives such as thermal continuity and continuous air barriers, and aspects of the design and construction process that led the project to success.
