SUMMARY:Designing Sustainability: A Tour of a Custom Build and Passive House Retrofit
DESCRIPTION:Reading Time:   2 minutesJoin Newark & Suburban for a guided tour of two homes that illustrate how thoughtful design can achieve high performance\, comfort\, and beauty — without compromise. Architect Chris Kellogg will lead participants through his own sustainably designed home as well as a certified Passive House retrofit\, both offering real-world examples of energy-efficient\, health-conscious residential design. \nSpace is limited! \n2 LU|HSW \nCourse Description \nWhether we are building new homes or renovating old ones\, many of us agree that going forward\, we must do it sustainably. That requires not only solid\, energy efficient housing\, not only housing that supports health\, but but it must also satisfy our esthetic needs. We don’t want to do it at the expense of style\, we don’t want to live in science experiments. People take care of what delights them. The two houses on this tour illustrate that. The first\, home of architect Chris Kellogg\, whose practice focuses on green\, sustainable architecture\, shows how adaptable\, how personal\, living sustainably can be. \nWhile Kellogg built the first house from scratch\, in important ways\, the second. which he renovated and added to\, is the newer one because when he began his home\, Passive House was little known in this country. Reconstructed a decade later than his\, the owners took advantage of even more rigorous construction practices to turn a generic 1950s split level into a certified Passive House Retrofit. \nPresenter \nChriston S. Kellogg\, AIA\, is the founding principal of Steele Kellogg\, established in 2007 with a focus on sustainable design. With over 30 years of experience\, he has worked on a diverse range of projects\, including disaster assessment\, hospital campuses\, clinics\, high-rise offices\, corporate interiors\, multi-family housing\, and residential designs. Christon holds degrees from the University of Texas (MSAS)\, Harvard University (MDES)\, Boston Architectural Center (BA)\, and studied French architecture at the University of Nantes. \nChriston’s philosophy centers on the idea that sustainability and beauty must go hand in hand. He believes that for green architecture to become the norm\, it must inspire—making beauty a necessity. Drawing from nature’s efficient elegance\, Christon advocates for designs that use fewer resources to create lasting\, beautiful solutions\, while addressing the environmental challenges of our time.
