On milder days, this warm air will be sufficient to warm the house. This perfect home is positioned to take full advantage of the lower winter sun, and a precision-designed cedar awning over the triple-glazed windows helps protect from the heat of summer sun.

The home design with casement window placement throughout the home allows for natural cooling by creating convection through the house which naturally causes the warm air to exhaust up through the staircase and out of the windows in the tatami room (pod roof). No cooling system planned for the house.
