This vacation residence located in a beautiful ocean community on the New England coast features high performance and creative use of space in a small package. ZED designed the simple, gable-roofed structure and proposed the Passive House standard. The resulting home consumes only one-tenth of the energy for heating compared to a similar new home built only to code requirements.

A super simple attic to bedroom conversion for a very special girl! This space went from dusty storage area to a dreamland perfect for any teenager to get ready, read, study, sleep, and even hang out with friends. New flooring, some closet construction, lots of paint, and some good spatial planning was all this space needed! Hoping to do a bathroom addition in the near future, but for now the paradise is just what this family needed to expand their living space. Furniture by others.
