这家人没有退到郊区，而是把目光投向了大学校园附近的一个中心社区。他们在一栋1300 SF 60年代的住宅中看到了希望，这套房子被当地称为“棚户区”-这种小型的、维护不足的房屋，往往会出现高成交量租金的螺旋式下降，从而破坏一个繁荣的社区。

Rather than retreat to the suburbs, this family looked to a central neighborhood near a university campus.  They saw promise in a 1,300 sf 1960’s home referred to locally as “the shack”—the kind of small, under-maintained house prone to a downward spiral of high-turnover rent that can fracture a flourishing community.

棚屋的密集装修更新了房子的布局、物质性、信封和支撑系统。它可以充分利用500 SF现有地下室，并扩大到2500 SF与楼板的等级加成。原来的建筑和增加使用柱和梁的建筑，与钢柱和木框架。舌沟漂白雪松通风雨网作为外部覆层.泡沫就地绝缘和绝缘护套实现了高性能的围护结构，产生一个R-40屋顶和R24墙.重新配置的窗口注入了世纪中叶的特征，并最大限度地利用了日光，同时通过极简主义的方法消除了非必要的元素。新的，高效的气候控制系统包括一个闭环，水平钻孔地热系统与新鲜空气能量回收，LED照明，和能源之星电器。一个8.4千瓦的光伏阵列驱动的机械系统，以及房子的所有LED照明和能源之星电器。

The shack’s intensive renovation updates the house’s layout, materiality, envelope, and supporting systems. It enables full use of the 500 sf existing basement and expands the main level to 2,500 sf with a slab-on-grade addition.  Both original building and addition utilize post and beam construction, with steel columns and wood framing. A tongue-and-groove bleached cedar ventilated rain screen serves as exterior cladding. Foamed-in-place insulation and insulated sheathing achieve a high-performance envelope, yielding an R-40 roof and R-24 walls. Reconfigured windows imbue mid-century character and maximize daylight, while a minimalist approach throughout eliminates non-essential elements. New, highly efficient climate control systems include a closed loop, horizontally-bored geothermal system with fresh air energy recovery, LED lighting, and EnergyStar appliances. An 8.4kW photovoltaic array powers the mechanical system as well as the house’s all LED lighting and EnergyStar appliances.

家庭衡量的是他们从公用事业公司获得的剩余能源和信贷，他们享受的生活质量，以及房子对邻里的积极影响。附近的一处房产已经开始更新，目标相同：质量、可持续性和卓越的设计。

The family measures their success in the surplus of energy and credit received from the utility company, the quality of life they enjoy, and the positive influence the house has had on the neighborhood. A nearby property has already begun renewal with the same goals: quality, sustainability, and design excellence.
