When the city of Vancouver, in an effort to abate a worsening housing crunch, allowed homeowners to build laneway houses—small backyard abodes that open onto lanes between city blocks—Karen and Stephen Dadson hired their architect son and his wife to design a new residence with an adjacent laneway home. “We liked the European idea of the whole multigenerational family being a unit,” says Karen. “But at the same time, we all value our privacy.” A shared courtyard provides a slight buffer between the homes, and a circuital route from door to door adds extra privacy. By following Passive House principles and prefabricated cross-laminated timber, architects Leland Dadson and Yvonne Popovska of dpo_architecture designed a sustainable home that will keep the family connected for years to come. Tour the multigenerational home when you try Dwell+ in the link in bio.

Hi havia una vegada...
Quatre parelles d’amics es van unir en un projecte comú per construir un edifici de cinc habitatges amb espais d’ús comunitari. El pati d’accés com a vestíbul obert i la piscina a coberta conviden a compartir activitats entre els usuaris. La combinació de materials com la fusta, el totxo i el formigó donen la textura, tonalitat i calidesa als diferents àmbits. El sistema de persianes de fusta, plegables i orientables, que tanquen terrasses i permeten tamisar la llum solar, contribueix a millorar el confort tèrmic, alhora que genera una relació de buits i plens dinàmica a les façanes testeres. L’edifici, amb classificació energètica A, incorpora també altres sistemes passius en el seu disseny i un sistema d’energia renovable que permet reduir considerablement el consum energètic.

Clad in wax-covered pine that’s stained black, this compact Amsterdam home is striking on the outside and endlessly charming on the inside. When owners Marjon Helder and Martin Blankendaal commissioned architect chriscollaris to redesign their decrepit waterfront home, they decided that starting from scratch made the most sense. “The house was very old and could not be saved,” Collaris says. “Starting over gave us aesthetic freedom.” In tribute to the old brick house, Collaris maintained some of the original elements, incorporating roof tiles and wood flooring into the garden and brick into the interior walls. See the entire renovation when you try Dwell+ in the link in bio.

A new view of our Haven Sectional. It's right at home in the "passive house," a New Jersey home built to use 80% less energy than a conventionally built home. Take a look inside with the link in bio! #familyfriendly #passivehouse #passivehomes

What do you think ? A form a little different from what we can usually see. With this project, the Japanese architects prove once again that it is possible to innovate formally in terms of architecture.⠀
⠀
Despite the unusual shape that does not respect the usual codes of Japanese architecture, the building is built entirely of wood. Japanese know-how that remains unmatched in the rest of the world.⠀
