While Passive House has been a popular building approach in Europe for decades, it's only within the last ten years that it has taken hold in the United States. Check out the article by Sandy Keenan in today's New York Times that examines this Passive House issue. It references The Artisans Group and our "Jewel Box" project. It also includes quotes from our very own Tessa Smith, local artist Don Freas, and pictures by our favorite photographer, Art Gray.
