 Passivhaus is a proven building design model which applies logical science to architecture.

The Passivhaus design model can be applied to almost any building typology and scale, from existing to new, and across most climates.

It has the capabilities of providing you as the occupants of buildings, with environments which have been proven on a project by project basis, to:

๐Ÿญ.Be healthier to live, learn, eat, work and sleep in, mitigating condensation risks and providing occupants with a constant supply of filtered fresh air,

๐Ÿฎ.Reduce overall building energy costs, therefore making them cost effective to run.

๐Ÿฏ.Significantly increase occupant concentration levels by reducing room CO2 buildups, while also ensuring constant room temperature.

It does this by proposing a number of well calculated processes during the building design stage.

One of these elements is the '๐—™๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—™๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐˜'approach, helping reduce the energy demand of buildings, while in turn lowering energy bill costs.

In addition to this, the largely effective combination of overall building airtightness, used together with Mechanical Ventilation and Heat Recovery(MVHR) systems, allows for constant, freshly-filtered air, with minimal heat loss.

If you are interested in approaching the design of your building which meets these standards then we at Lytle Associates Architects, as certified Passivhaus designers, would be happy to help.
