Certified passive house designer

Cars, phones, computers, …most of the objects around us are highly technological and have been developed since their inception to this day. You wouldn’t drive a car from 1920 or use a “dumb phone” and yet you are still living in the same house that was built more than 50 years ago. Those houses are drafty, expensive to heat or cool and badly insulated from dust and noises.

What if we told you that there is a way to address those inconveniences the next time you renovate your house ? It’s called the passive house principle and it’s about time that we update our building environment to the comfort standard we deserve to have.

What if we told you that your energy bill will be cheap, that you won’t have rodents or bugs in your house, that your allergy crisis will diminish and that you’ll finally know what it feels like living in a comfortable house ?
