KPAC
house is located on an idyllic site with panoramic views of
the Green Mountains of Vermont. Designed to meet the
needs of clients with an interest in an environmentally
friendly energy efficient building, the house takes advantage
of climate, location, solar orientation and views. The
structure of the house integrates the classic vernacular lines
and tradition of post and beam framing with structural
insulated panels to provide a maximum of efficiency and
durability. Natural, locally sourced materials were used
in both the structure and finish details.
