Constance Bay Cottage
Ottawa, Ontario

Revitalizaton

Design & Construction Administration Services

The existing 1,850 square foot un-insulated cottage was purchased in the fall of 2006 in a state of disrepair.  The transformation involves the replacement of internal infrastructure, and space reconfiguration to create a stylish and sustainable living environment for all seasons.

Selected green design strategies:
. Revegetation and natural system rehabilitation
. Hyper efficient building envelope (windows, doors, walls)
. Reuse of building materials
. Local low embodied energy building materials
. Forest Stewardship Council certified wood products
