BASF’s Neopor® insulation enables award-winning firm Dennis Wedlick Architect LLC design a home that uses 90% less heating/cooling energy.
BASF's insulation material Neopor® (expandable polystyrene: EPS) is featured in the first certified Passive House in New York State. Designed by Dennis Wedlick Architect, LLC (DWA), the three-bedroom The Hudson Passive Project is one of the most energy-efficient homes in the country, and the first in New York State to achieve the demanding standard established by the Passive House Institute®, Germany. The Passive House Institute has compiled data that compares the energy ratings of different types of home. That data shows that by adhering to the Passive House design standards, a 90% decrease in energy consumption can be achieved.
A departure from the modern Passive House aesthetic, Wedlick’s goal was to design a high-performance home with the rustic charm of a country barn.
