The project

A 136 m² family passive house on three levels, self-built by Bruno in the Bauges, near Annecy, with hand-liftable modular Blokiwood blocks. Designed with the Atelier du Vieux Bourg and erected with a local carpenter, the house benefits from integrated wood fibre insulation and a thermal phase shift suited to the mountain climate: the temperature stays steady at around 20 °C with no additional heating.
