Summary:
Two light-filled modern homes on an infill lot in downtown Toronto, designed to exceed NetZero Ready standards and support sustainable and healthy living.

The building, with two 4-level residences, is heading the way amongst the few but increasing number of houses in Toronto designed to minimize the carbon footprint.

Providing modern design with clean lines, the project utilizes gentle intensification, off-site construction, all the while nurturing sustainable and healthy city living.

Expansive efforts were taken to create a highly energy-efficient building.

The result is two homes which will emit 80% fewer greenhouse gases and use 60% less energy than if the homes were constructed simply to building code standards.

Apart from energy-efficiency we also focused on providing superior indoor air quality and a healthy living environment within each residence.

Efficient, Sustainable and Healthy Urban Living
