M + M House LEED H certification getting closer

The exquisite home of local Architect Mariacarmen Martinez is getting closer to completion.

Sebastian Eilert Architecture, SEA, together with Veterans Energy Solutions (VES) is doing the LEED H certification for the project and we are approaching the dry in inspection.
The home is a unique design that considers many factors of the local climate and is pushing the energy efficiency currently pursued by other homes. With an all white exterior, overhangs and careful massing and orientation on the site this home will no doubt be one of the most efficient homes in Miami, likely South Florida.

The site was largely undisturbed, pool and mayor trees were kept in place, other substantial platns were relocated to other areas of the property. No solid driveway is intended and the site will be draught free and naturally shaded.

Additional consideration for materials and water savings as well as a compact layout for appliances and fixtures will further reduce water demand. Careful consideration has also been taking in selecting the materials and finished.

The M+M Residence will be a shining beacon of sustainable design with a minimal monthly operating cost and excellent clean air quality.
