Meridian View
Firm
Type
A rooftop pavilion angles out over Fifteenth Street above the brick row
houses and points to a stunning view of Meridian Hill Park. Wood lines the
inside of the stucco form and channels light into the house via the stairwell.
Spaces are made more flexible by eliminating interior walls in favor of movable
partitions and low counters. Kitchen and dining areas are lit with high-gloss finishes
over wood tones and warm colors. The pavilion itself acts as a solar chimney
with built-in settings that provide cooling and fresh air to provide thermal
comfort to the previously isolated lower floors. It also acts as a collector
for rainwater, which is used for watering the garden.The owners wanted to improve their home and be as green as they could.
We worked with the following rules of thumb for sustainability and made our
decisions based on them: Insulate well. Choose an energy-efficient mechanical
system, energy-efficient appliances, and green materials. Design for
flexibility. Think passive. Conserve water.
The result? An award-winning design with energy cost savings up to
sixty percent.FEATURES: Passive Solar Design - Heating and Cooling, Rainwater
Harvesting, High Performance Mechanical System, Raised Floor, Residential Green
Materials.
