Overview
Have you ever heard of Passive House? It's an advanced standard for energy efficient buildings. While there are thousands of Passive House buildings in Germany (where the movement began) and all over Europe, Passive Houses are just starting to take hold in NYC. This showroom, open by appointment, has a wide array of the super insulating materials needed to make even a regular house more efficient and comfortable.
