“Glenn is a talented designer who had the perfect mix of skills for our new home. He was able to bring together our wishes for a classic, yet modern, design and marry it with the very precise Passive House standards. Throughout the process, he guided us towards good design without compromising on building performance. Glenn was involved through the whole process from design to completion and ensured we got the right outcome. The end result is a home which is beautifully proportioned, belongs in its surroundings, is practical to live in and maintains a comfortable 20-25 degrees year round without any heating.”
