Onion Flats Architecture is excited to kick-off the design phase of the Teacher’s Eco Village multifamily adaptive reuse project in Baltimore!? After a few year hiatus, we’ll be digging back into the details of this very worthy project, which will see a former public school transformed into a 37-unit, high performance workforce housing community. An integral part of our retrofit work includes incorporation of a 3D point cloud scan, which is not only necessary for accurate documentation, but also yields some fun collage-like visuals - complete with entourage!

Sharing a quick view from the rooftop solar array at Copper Flats, a recently completed new construction multifamily project in the Norris Square neighborhood of Philadelphia.? It's been a long journey for this project (with the original building permits obtained pre-COVID!), and while the design has evolved over the past 6 years, optimizing the roof for solar remained a high priority. The final design includes a combination of roof ballasted and bi-facial canopy panels, arranged across the two mirrored 4-story buildings, yielding a combined array size of ~140 kW.

Construction is in full swing over at deep energy retrofit site, Hano Homes, in Allston, MA! With RMI’s guidance, this 20-unit affordable housing property?is getting retrofitted to achieve Phius passive house status. This retrofit is projected to reduce Hano Homes’ energy consumption by 69% and minimize tenant disruption to just two weeks! To achieve net-zero energy use and transform this building from a carbon emitter to a building that stores carbon, the project will feature: ?? A super-insulated exterior shell and high performance windows that will increase the thermal resistance of the walls. ?? Wood fiber insulation, a bio-based material that reduces embodied carbon on-site while enabling the project to realize operational carbon savings immediately. ?? All-electric mechanical systems and rooftop solar! Check out our case study to learn more about the ins-and-outs of this exciting work ?? https://lnkd.in/gTxXM8hE cc: Haycon, Allston Brighton CDC, Tierney Development Services, LLC, Sustainable Comfort, Inc., Maloney Properties, Inc., Resonant Energy, Onion Flats Architecture

We’re coming up on 5 years since the completion of Onion Flats’ own Front Flats project in Philadelphia. Each of our past in-house development projects have yielded avenues for valuable ‘lessons learned’ - from trying out new MEP system approaches, equipment or envelope products, to literally cladding an entire building with solar panels.? Now with several years of post-occupancy data available, we’re able to take a critical look at the projected energy usage versus actual consumption. We’re excited to report that even with much higher plug loads than projected / modeled (in part thanks to a few bitcoin-mining tenants!), the overall EUI is still averaging an incredible 1.57 kBTU/sfyr! Check out our website for more information on the project: https://lnkd.in/gBtgjQEm

Sharing this informative video documenting this past November’s ‘Look & Learn Event’ at the Hano Homes Deep Energy retrofit project in Allston Brighton.? While solving difficult problems is a regular part of every design and construction process, in order to make existing building decarbonization commonplace, we also have to literally ‘show our work’ - thanks to Allston Brighton CDC for capturing this event! https://lnkd.in/ektpEm-a Allston Brighton CDC Haycon Resonant Energy Sustainable Comfort, Inc.

These photos may not look too exciting, but the results depicted here are AMAZING. Congratulations to the Project Team over at the 252 Dunning St passive house project in Madison WI on an incredible 0.04 cfm50/sf (mid-point!) blower door result. Diligence in execution and attention to detail pays off in spades (and slashing energy consumption)!
