Passive House Canada is presenting “A Pattern Language from Passive House”. This is an interactive workshop that teaches cost-effective planning and design of affordable, low-emission, mid-rise, multi-unit, wood-framed housing.
This four-part workshop presents design problems common to multi-unit buildings, followed by solutions that have worked in previous high-performance projects. These solutions are organized into “patterns” using a format adapted from A Pattern Language by Christopher Alexander (et al).
The workshop is offered over the following dates:
- November 14 - Context & Form (10 - 1 MST)
- November 21 - Materials & Assemblies
- November 28 - Windows & Overheating
- December 5 - Affordable Mechanical
