The Passive House is a exploration into innovative strategies of desigining residential homes that consumes less energy and water to address the issue of climate change. Some strategies employed in this project are: solar energy, reusing water rain and waste water along with passive ventilation, heating and cooling strategies. The courtyard and thin, linear plannning organisation are the key passive design strategies featured in this project. They effectively faclilitates the exchange of stale air with fresh air by creating an air circulation zone and optimizing cross ventilation across the house.
