FEITLER RESIDENCE
AUBURN, IN

Pursuing LEED Gold - LEED for Homes

 

A new, 3,500 square feet, Modern-Style eco-friendly home to be located in Auburn is being constructed using 12” ICFs (insulated concrete forms).  The ICFs give the exterior walls a true R-24 insulation rating as well as reducing the potential of air and noise infiltration.  The new home was designed using the LEED® for Homes Green Building Rating System administered by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).  The exterior of the home will be constructed using commercial grade metal siding and standing seam roof.  Interior amenities include LED lighting, water conserving fixtures, reclaimed wood and solid surface countertops, geothermal radiant heating, and automated clearstory windows for whole-house ventilation.  The home is designed for a 4 kilowatt photovoltaic system to harness year-around southern sun exosure.  With the use of these technologies, the home will have the potential to be "off-the-grid" and be able to operate completely independently of all traditional public utitlity services during certain parts of the year.  Spaces include a 3 car garage, master bedroom suite, living room, family room, kitchen, dining room, laundry, outdoor patio, studio, and two (2) additional bedrooms on the second level.

UTTER RESIDENCE
AKRON, IN

WINONA LAKE RESIDENCE
WINONA LAKE, IN


A new 8,830 square feet Craftsman-style lakefront home to be located on Winona Lake will be constructed using 4” SIPs (structural insulated panels).  The SIPs will give the exterior walls a true R-24 insulation rating as well as reducing the potential of air and noise infiltration.  The new home will be constructed using recycled content materials as well as many other sustainable products.  Spaces include a 3-1/2 car garage, master bedroom suite, living room, study, kitchen, dining room, butler’s pantry, laundry, outdoor kitchen, spa room, storage, exercise room, rec. room, media room, family room, 3 season room, and three (3) additional bedrooms.

CAMMLLARIE DECK RENOVATION
GARFIELD, AK

Removing an existing 1,200 square feet cedar and redwood deck and replacing it with a two-tone composite decking system will be the primary focus of the Cammllarie Deck project.  With years of maintenance issues with an existing wood deck, the new deck system will be constructed with steel members for the entire structural system.  The new deck cladding will be a virtually maintenance free composite system with matching railing to accent the existing home.  Along with the addition of the new deck, the existing foundation systems for both the house and deck will be repaired and replaced as needed due to the issues with the severe downward slope of the site as it overlooks the lake below.  The deck renovation is tentatively scheduled for Spring 2009.
