Solar & Sustainable Design

Silverthorne Solar Home

This house located in Silverthorne, Colorado was designed with sun and views in mind. A dedicated solar house, the mean temperature in the living areas stays at 70 degrees through all four seasons. The North side of the house, bedrooms and private areas, is kept up to room temperature with the help of radiant in-floor radiant heating.
Lighting is a critical element in this house. During the day, plenty of sunshine pours in the south and west windows, allowing for minimal interior lighting and lower electric bills. Structural skin panels, super-insulated walls, and the in-floor radiant heating further decrease other utility costs.
Vaulted ceilings, open air, a multitude of metal connections, and exposed structural members add to make the Silverthorne Solar Home a unique and comfortable place to live.
