Its seems like the last few months have been spent sitting at an old wooden drawing table, hunched over under the yellow light of a swing-arm lamp. I've just completed the presentation board for my Active/Passive Systems class. Tomorrow I'll walk my classmates through it.


There is a lot of information covered on this 18"X 24" sheet. Solar studies, passive solar gain, ventilation, site orientation, on-site water management, heating/cooling systems, building materials, design loss/performance, top-lighting, eco-roof and so on. Its the result of 11 weeks of analysis on a house I designed for another class. And I'm finally done. The only thing I am embarrassed to say is that I didn't include solar panels. Or at least I didn't include them on my board. But I'm sure I can add those in later.
