Twin Oaks Residence now finished!
Time passed quickly and the Twin Oaks Residence is now finished.
The building has an envelope made with the combination of Structural Insulated Panels, SIPs, and Insulated Concrete Forms, ICF. These two materials make the building envelope very energy efficient. The exterior walls were stuccoed over and the inside of the walls was plastered.
The floors are stained concrete throughout the house. Concrete floors are easy to maintain and offer a healthy anti-allergy surfaces.
The entire house is supplied with a rainwater harvesting system. The water is collected into a 30,000 gallon storage tank. The tank is partially underground which keeps the water cooler during the hot Central Texas summer months.
