Thackeray Residence

This home was designed utilizing many unique and creative sustainable methods, materials and systems. Beautiful and sustainable materials such as engineered walnut floors, synthetic ‘cedar’ shake roof, low VOC paints, 100% LED lighting contribute to the home’s rich aesthetic. While many hidden technical features including Geothermal heating and cooling, rooftop micro weather station to anticipate climate changes and trigger mechanical systems to preemptively activate, daylight harvesting and passive heat relief make the home extremely efficient.

Practical and fun features include hidden passageways for pets to pass through walls, kids TV lounge outside their 3 bedrooms, 3 separate home offices for parents and kids; TV hidden behind mirror in the primary bath; outdoor kitchen; rain garden; an elevator shaft for access to all levels. While the house is jam packed with sustainable features, these elements work quietly in the background allowing for uncompromised architecture. This home was designed as a candidate for LEED gold certification.
