East Mountain Residence
The stepping plan of this lakeside residence was in response to the shape of the site and the desire to focus movement and living space towards the best views of the lake. The house was designed for an expanding family, with rooms that could be easily converted to accommodate the clients in their later years.
An Energy efficient Geothermal heat pump supplies the in-floor radiant heat system, air conditioning and hot-water heaters to save on utility costs. Other sustainable systems include the Superior Wall foundations, cellulose insulation, CFL lighting, and the On-Demand Structured Plumbing.
Sustainable materials such as fiber cement siding, bamboo floors, zero-VOC paint are incorporated into the project, to reduce the toll on the environment. Candidate for LEED certification.
