TBDA designs architecture for health, energy efficiency and beauty, tailored to each client and site. Through Passive House technology, zero energy buildings and Biophilic design, we’ll help you make a positive impact on the environment.
Starry Nights Farmhouse
Starry Nights Farm, an organic cattle farm in southern Wisconsin, requested a home in line with their sustainability goals. This timeless-looking but cutting-edge home features:
*Passive House design, using energy modeling to optimize the thermal envelope and energy strategy;
*Annual zero energy use through conservation-based design and a roof-mounted solar PV array;
*Health promoting interior through minimized toxicity in materials and finishes, demand-controlled energy recovery ventilation, and natural light and materials;
*Structural strength and durability through insulated concrete form (ICF) wall construction;
*Resilience through backup power and pellet stove supplementary heating.
As a net-zero building, all power-heating, appliances, hot water, etc. are supplied through electricity, with their annual consumption calculated to be offset by the predicted production of the PV array.

TBDA is pleased to add another project to the distinguished list of Oak Park, IL architectural “firsts.” Our prefab, modular, Zero Energy Ready Home (DOE) has been built in an Indiana factory by Hi-Tech Housing, and was set in place on August 23, 2017 in Oak Park. It took 3 trucks and one large crane to place the six modules together, and after six hours, there stood a fully enclosed and roofed...

Nice work TBD
Just moved out of Chicago to a more rural area to escape all the rush and the home I bought is not very efficient at all. I am seeking ways to lower our energy consumption and this information on passive solar homes is very valuable. I hope to find affordable solutions that fit my needs. Thanks.
beautiful design with lots of nice touches. Were site limitations the reason why most of the living areas are oriented north-south instead of east-west?
How much was the cost per sft for this home. Without the land value. Rest all expenses included.
Great design - sleeping porch is a cool idea. A few questions: 1) At 4:40, why the transition from fluid-applied air barrier to Tyvek (looks like Tyvek fronts the attic space) at the upper walls? 2) At 4:58, the Blueskin WRB - is it adhered to the rigid insulation (shown in wall section at 4:00), or is there another layer of sheathing over the rigid insul. that the Blueskin adheres to? 3) At 4:00, in the wall section, how is the rigid insulation over the foundation wall protected where exposed above grade?
Brian, my guess on Q1 is that the attic space is unconditioned and uninsulated, the air barrier and insulation are likely in the flat ceiling plane on the second floor. So the Tyvek is only a bulk water barrier for the walls surrounding the attic. Would love to have that confirmed and your other questions answered.
Thanks! and sorry to be 2 years late answering...but in case anyone wants to know--the Tyvek is above the air barrier, since it's an uninsulated attic; the Blueskin went right over the EPS insulation; and we used acrylic stucco (over fiberglass mesh) at the foundation insulation.
@@mjsunkiter exactly!
the carport roof looks like it angles towards the house. Doesn't appear to consider heavy rain water
it is definitely sloping away! There's a green roof up there now which absorbs much of most rains, but the membrane was designed to make a durable structure. Good drainage and bulk water management is a fundamental design and construction need that is carefully addressed.
Besides the well thought out plan the L shaped handles with the curve show knowledge of an excellent interior designer. I like them. No long coat catching. No round slippery door knobs. Hammocks for the overwarm warm midwest summer days, outside the PH protecting the bugs by screening off.
I love the PassivHaus concept and this is a great example of the art. Well done to the architect and his team. I hope this is the vision of the future in the age of clean energy.
Seven walnut trees made that tiny feature wall? What happened to the rest of all that wood?
Amazing, I ride by this house frequently on my (singular for now) building science and biking runs through Oak Park. Two questions. I saw the OC XPS, did foundation slab get poured after the boxes were dropped in? It looks like Advantech on the walls but not the roof. Is that correct? If so then why? Absolutely great project.
This is such a beautiful, well thought out design. Very inspirational!
thank you!
Love the house!
thanks!
Beautiful home and design. Would you mind sharing what the approx price per sq footage was? Appreciate it.
IIRC, he said it was a little over 1800 sf
thanks! I'd rather not discuss costs on this house in particular, but we have studied costs on Passive House compared to built-to-code ("barely legal" like most construction), and found that for single family, first cost increase is in the 4-7% range--which is offset by energy savings from code minimum. This of course varies widely based on house shape, materials selected, HVAC systems, etc. What's key is having a builder who understands and supports the concept, and an architect who understands Passive House and will work with the builder to find cost-optimized solutions. As for cost/s.f. in general--we're seeing skyrocketing lumber costs and substantial increases in many other components--I wouldn't expect to see a new single family much below about $300/s.f. (construction cost, not including land, design fees, landscaping).
@@TBDArchitects Strongly concur. We must look at the meeting the needs and desires of the client by optimizing materials with analysis to meet social goals and the ability to afford, now, and options for the future.
Excellent video. Thank you for preparing and sharing it.
sure thing, thanks for watching! more to come...
One more important resource I forgot on the last slide: Passivehouse Accelerator, a great community, with frequent presentations and online social hours-- passivehouseaccelerator.com/
Impressive video! It seems prefab is an interesting way of the future to build houses! I was happy to visit it today.
I think it's terrific that Oak Park would allow this. Please post more information about the energy factors, etc.
