Co-hosts Mike and Jennifer-Lee chat with Joe Geluch looking at infill housing solutions featuring a Passivhaus+ duplex project with two lock-off suites, built on a single-family lot as a solution to addressing Vancouversa国际传媒檚 Missing Middle housing.

sa国际传媒榃e had the opportunity to present this project at the International Passive House Conference in Germany last year. People were interested in it as a new housing typology addressing the missing middle problem in Vancouver. Currently there is an incentive with the City of Vancouver until 2025 for the FSR exemption if yousa国际传媒檙e going for a certified passive house. This project got 18% extra floor area for doing a certified passive house duplex, which meant an additional 600 square feet total, essentially one extra bedroom per home,sa国际传媒� says Allison Holden-Pope of One Seed Architecture and Interiors.

Packed with information and ideas on infill housing solutions to address the missing middle, this episode explores how building to higher standards on a single-family lot can benefit your family and community.

sa国际传媒楶assive homes used to be all about energy efficiency, and now there is a focus on embodied carbon because yousa国际传媒檝e already set this base of a high-performance home. Letsa国际传媒檚 do it using as sustainable materials. I think that thatsa国际传媒檚 how things are evolving. Itsa国际传媒檚 ultimately everybodysa国际传媒檚 dream, that passive house doesnsa国际传媒檛 even get mentioned anymore because itsa国际传媒檚 code. Thatsa国际传媒檚 just how we build. Thatsa国际传媒檚 what we want to have happen.sa国际传媒� Joe Geluch, Naikoon Contracting.
