Lot

The Miller Residence combines
"Green Building" with contemporary design. The owners
were an integral part of this project, infusing their knowledge
of the arts into the overall design. The result is a magnificent
myriad of roof slopes and forms working in sync with the surrounding
landscape. |

|
The overall performance of
the design has yet to be truly tested. Though at the moment (with
massng material installed), the average mean temperature in the
house stays between 68 and 72 degrees throughout the day. At
night and in the winter, the massing (slate flooring with 4"
of concrete beneath) will re-radiate the day's heat. Combined
with other elements such as structual skin roof panels and super
insulated 2x6 walls, the house will stay at these same temperatures
with little or no help from the radiant in-floor heat. |
 |
Plenty of daylighting, large
exposed beams, open atmosphere, and the soft stucco combine to
make this house a comfortable and elegant place to live in.
