Jewel Box Passive House Images

We all love this super low carbon footprint energy efficient Passive House, it feels like it grew from the earth and settled right in as if it’s always been there. A small-sized house designed for local wood and metal sculptor, Don Freas (Don Freas Design), this wonderfully friendly modern house is nestled on a hillside overlooking Budd Inlet and the surrounding mountains. Together with Don, we’ve created a refuge for inspiration, comfortable living and creating.

Be sure to watch the video on the most elegant integral automatic window shade system installed in The Jewel Box, it’s really slick!
