Individual house

Situated in a suburban area, this house was built on a slope, thus avoiding the need to move earth unnecessarily. The building has been certified low-energy and meets all insulation requirements thanks to its construction using passive techniques. The structure uses wood, and avoids mechanical bindings. The walls allow air to circulate as vapour barrier films are avoided. The facade is mostly closed on the ground-floor side, with large south-facing windows on the garden side.
