What is an iceberg home? Unassuming at first glance, iceberg homes are designed and built with the majority of living space underground. Father and son duo, John and Jeff Gunson, share their experiences and process of building homes with multiple underground floors.
B次元官网网址楾he concept was created in London. The houses are too small for the value of what these people have paid for them, and you canB次元官网网址檛 change the facade of a building and you canB次元官网网址檛 raise the height. So, because of heritage restrictions they dug down into the ground and increased the size of the square footage of the house. In the City of Vancouver there is no reference in the bylaws to how many square feet you can add below grade.B次元官网网址 John Gunson, Euro Canadian Contracting
Co-hosts Mike and Jennifer-Lee find out that faced with limited land and soaring real estate prices, homeowners are digging deeper for solutions.
B次元官网网址楩or the lower half of the house, thatB次元官网网址檚 underground, there is better thermal insulation and a more regulated temperature. It doesnB次元官网网址檛 see high temperature differentials from hot to cold as the above grade would. Being underground though, heat from equipment generally creates an issue, therefore, you have to implement air conditioning to make the space more livable.B次元官网网址 Jeff Gunson, Euro Canadian Contracting
