FAB-HOMESTM is a collection of pre-designed modern dwellings planned along the principles of Passive Design and Sustainable Architecture. Our green homes are highly energy efficient, easy to maintain, healthy to live in, environmentally friendly and affordable.
Developed by our in-house designer team, fab-home´s flexible designs are capable of meeting the most stringent energy efficiency standards and can be configured to fit almost every layout including infill & laneway lots.
For every fab-homes™ model we are offering different design packages and house plans to choose from, next to custom architectural design services to incorporate your own, unique design vision.
PASSIVE DESIGN | PASSIVE HOUSE
Passive Design is the strategic approach to all our designs, featuring superior insulation, high performance windows & doors, excellent air tightness, open floor layout, healthy indoor environment and highly efficient heat recovery.
Passive House is a specific design standard from Germany and Austria which fundamentally consists of an energy limit (heating/cooling), a quality requirement (comfort) and a defined set of Passive systems. Several components have an impact on whether the standard can be achieved or not.
For us, the Passive House standard is not a requirement, rather a goal.
In any way, your fab-home will consume up to 90% less energy than a standard home and is able maintain a comfortable temperature in winter and summer without or only little active heating and cooling.
CONSTRUCTION | BUILDER
Your Fab-home can be constructed by one of our professional builder partners in your area or a builder of your choice, in which case we would work closely together with your contractor to ensure proper execution.
Our designs are also available as high efficiency panelized pre-fabs, where the floor, wall and roof system is manufactured by our prefab partner and assembled on site within a few days. This method uses less material, ensures sustainable, high quality construction of the envelope under controlled conditions and greatly reduces the risk of time & budget overruns.
NEW: An advanced wood construction method from Europe is now available:
Modular construction using cross-laminated-timber technology. The CLT panels are manufactured offsite according to detailed plans and assembled onsite – quick, sustainable, precise and of highest quality.
ECO FRIENDLY PRACTISES
Our green homes are not only one of the most energy efficient out there, they are also eco friendly and cost effective, designed along LEED guidelines giving you an extensive selection of Green Building practises to include in your fab-home.
