This is one of the good things about living in Southern AZ. We have access to some really wonderful people doing sustainable building and willing to teach others about it. Marcia Gibbons was our hostess and she taught us how to create a mud plaster on the interior and exterior of walls, amongst other things. Anyone interested in green homes, sustainability, green living, and natural building, this video is worth the few minutes.

The Passive House in the Woods (www.passivehouseinthewoods.com) is a 1,900 square foot two-story single family home with walk-out basement level, and a rooftop terrace. It was commissioned by a private client, designed by TE Studio, and constructed by Morr Construction. It sits on just over one acre in the Town of Hudson, WI – minutes from Interstate 94. Located on the outer edge of a residential development, the home overlooks the St. Croix River Valley. The building lot provides stunning views and prime passive solar exposure. The propertys north boundary is heavily wooded and borders undeveloped land. The design of the house works with the natural landscape, and minimizes impact on the wooded character of the lot. This house will be certified by the US Passive House Institute and MN GreenStar.
