1220 12th Street House, Brook Creek, Kansas, United States,
Studio 804 and the University of Kansas Department of Architecture,
Every year, graduate students at the University of Kansas Department of Architecture enroll in the nonprofit Studio 804 program to design and build a sustainable, affordable and innovative home over the course of the year.
The 1220 12th Street House is LEED Platinum certified and targets net zero energy use. It integrates passive strategies for ventilation and sun shading with photovoltaics and state of the art mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems. It is Studio 804’s first fully integrated smart house. All the blinds, lights, appliance and the heating and air conditioning communicate with each other and the owner to enhance efficient, responsible and convenient living.
