Co-hosts Mike and Jennifer-Lee chat with Joe Geluch looking at infill housing solutions featuring a Passivhaus+ duplex project with two lock-off suites, built on a single-family lot as a solution to addressing VancouverB次元官网网址檚 Missing Middle housing.

B次元官网网址榃e had the opportunity to present this project at the International Passive House Conference in Germany last year. People were interested in it as a new housing typology addressing the missing middle problem in Vancouver. Currently there is an incentive with the City of Vancouver until 2025 for the FSR exemption if youB次元官网网址檙e going for a certified passive house. This project got 18% extra floor area for doing a certified passive house duplex, which meant an additional 600 square feet total, essentially one extra bedroom per home,B次元官网网址� says Allison Holden-Pope of One Seed Architecture and Interiors.

Packed with information and ideas on infill housing solutions to address the missing middle, this episode explores how building to higher standards on a single-family lot can benefit your family and community.

B次元官网网址楶assive homes used to be all about energy efficiency, and now there is a focus on embodied carbon because youB次元官网网址檝e already set this base of a high-performance home. LetB次元官网网址檚 do it using as sustainable materials. I think that thatB次元官网网址檚 how things are evolving. ItB次元官网网址檚 ultimately everybodyB次元官网网址檚 dream, that passive house doesnB次元官网网址檛 even get mentioned anymore because itB次元官网网址檚 code. ThatB次元官网网址檚 just how we build. ThatB次元官网网址檚 what we want to have happen.B次元官网网址� Joe Geluch, Naikoon Contracting.
