The Big Idea
Set above Henderson Bay, Gig Harbor Passive House turns a restrained gable into a warm, deeply livable retreat. Artisans Group’s architecture shelters decks and patios for both bright summer days and rainy evenings by the fire. Positive Energy’s MEP engineering complements the prefabricated high-performance enclosure with quiet, efficient systems that protect comfort and indoor air quality year-round, while solar power helps the home tread lightly on its remarkable setting.
Photography
Great residential MEP work for world-class architecture is rarely seen because our coordination disappears behind walls and into refined details—and simply works as intended. The photographers who capture the spirit of these homes so brilliantly remind us that what we create is beautiful because it is the sum of many parts forming a whole.
