3twenty Living HouseSaskatoon, SK
Explore Project3twenty has been setting new energy efficient standards on commercial work, and now we wanted to try them in the residential market.
Project Summary
The goal of this project was to demonstrate that we could build a better home for both people and the environment. We achieved this by leveraging our integrated design-build process, which we have refined through years of commercial work. The team built this home to the Passive House standard. It features a super-insulated building envelope, triple-pane fibreglass window frames, airtight construction, a continuous fresh air system, and a thermal-bridge-free design.
As a result, the home requires 80% less energy than a standard new build. It also reduces annual greenhouse gas emissions by 49%. Beyond the environmental benefits, the passive design creates even and consistent indoor temperatures. It provides constant fresh air and helps reduce noise pollution. Together, these features make the home exceptionally comfortable.
At 1,710 square feet, the home features an open-concept floor plan. It includes three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms. The layout also offers a second-floor laundry room. In addition, it includes a large kitchen and entertaining area, a butler’s pantry, and a vaulted ceiling on the second floor.
