One renovated home in Toronto can check off all the bullet points in green architect Lloyd Alter’s list for a green home.
Compact, centrally located downtown, featuring minimalist design, and filled with natural light and fresh air, the home of couple Tom Knezic and Christine Lolley affords them savings in both energy consumption and costs.
Even the renovating process itself – choosing retrofitting and insulating over demolishing – is a green step on its own.
