Blue Spruce Hollow I: Architect David Hartke Builds a LEED/Green Residence
Blue Spruce Hollow, Episode I:
Architect David Hartke showed Pierre his environmentally conscious new home, under construction in Doylestown Pennsylvania. The home is to become a LEED-Certified or 'Green' dwelling with many energy and environmentally-friendly features.
South-facing, the home gains much from solar orientation. Large sheltered porch living spaces will provide several 3-season rooms. The home uses little/no large timbers, relying instead on strong composite materials made from fast-growing woods.
A 1.5 KW photovoltaic electrical system provides much of the home's electrical needs. A geothermal heating/cooling system is under construction.
