June 15th: Undertaking a Passive House Retrofit
Karin Patriquin, Patriquin Architects, President
On Wednesday, June 15th at noon, we will be joined by Karin Patriquin of Patriquin Architects who will talk about a recent retrofit of their office to Passive House Standards which are used in designing new buildings, or retrofitting existing ones, to be highly energy efficient. The best part is their office is a significant Federal style commercial Building constructed in 1816! Ms. Patriquin will talk about the challenges and rewards from this project and what it could mean for the future of preserving historic buildings.
