Comfort, Energy and Environment
Active House is a vision for buildings that create healthier and more comfortable lives for their occupants without having a negative impact on the climate – moving us towards a cleaner, healthier and safer world. The main focus areas of the Active House principles are comfort, energy and environment. Green Solution House is based on these principles and performs very well within the three categories. We offer great indoor comfort due to good daylighting, active materials, and clever ventilation that includes both natural and mechanical solutions. Good energy performance is achieved with energy saving solutions and by using renewable energy from both on-site and off-site sources. A positive environmental impact is secured through recyclability and local resources as well as by excluding harmful chemicals during material selection. On-site biological water purification reduces freshwater consumption – which further supports our positive impact.
