Passive House Duplexes
These duplex units fit on a standard Vancouver 33x122 lot. Three different roof options are pictured above.
Each duplex home includes:
1500sf
2Br / 2Bath main unit
1Br / 1Bath lock-off suite
Single car garage and bike locker
Yard Space and a large balcony off of the living / dining
Master bedrooms are located above or below your own space (not above / below the neighbour)
Certified Passive House design and construction with super insulated walls and windows
‘Hygiene Ventilation’ with 100% fresh air year round (no air recirculation)
The same floor plan can be done with a variety of roof shapes. Here are three different 33’ lots with three different roof styles.
“L” shaped units share the main floor.
This arrangement lets both duplex units have access to the sunny south, and shady north, and reduces the amount of floor space lost to stairs.
