In honor of the first day of spring, time to slide open the patio doors and let the fresh mountain air in.
Shout out to DAJ Design on this completed project just outside of Breckenridge. This thermal efficient home incorporated Alpen windows and SIGA tapes to accomplish the level of comfort the owners desired. Can you believe the access to awesome hiking right out their back door?

"A building is a complex system of many components (most importantly envelope + mechanical systems) that need to be designed to work together for the end product to be efficient, comfortable, resilient and long-lasting," —Hans Joachim Preiss, aka Electrification Specialist.
SIGA products avoid spray applications and also avoid toxins such as formaldehyde, solvents, and harmful resins. This family business started in Switzerland in 1965 and is focused on research and development to always push the "envelope"!
SIGA products are also proven to help with Passive House construction. Whether you’re building to these standards, or you just want a more energy-efficient space, SIGA products are a winner!

There are some pretty snazzy design ideas out there in the world. If you look at design contests, architectural school projects, or even just down your own street, you’ll probably see some very beautiful designs that simply don’t make a lot of practical sense. It comes back to the age-old question of form vs. function.
Designers have been walking that delicate balance for years, and in today’s world, it’s no different. Simply put: certain design attributes cause complexity with energy efficiency and force project owners to make hard decisions.
This month in our blog, we cover—Energy-Minded Design: The Balance Between Form & Function (link in bio)
