Begun through the sustainable process of deconstruction, this North Side house will achieve LEED-Gold Certification upon completion.  In addition to the piece-by-piece disassembling and recycling of the existing house, the Silver Maple trees that were cleared for construction were repurposed into furnishings.  Remaining flowers and plants were also donated to be replanted elsewhere.

The operational system also promote the objective of reusing and replenishing.  Using low-demand LED lighting while drawing power from rooftop photovoltaic panels, the homeowner plans to become a net-zero electric home within a short time.  Heating and cooling the house is done through a closed-loop geothermal system feeding both radiant floors and a high-efficiency furnace for cooling.  Combined with high-performing windows and a building envelope that doubles the performance of the LEED standard, this building pushes the sustainable envelope  by providing for a 500 square feet rooftop fruit and vegetable garden.
