The Living Sanctuary
Paonia, CO
In this project, it was critical for the homeowners to create a sanctuary that nurtured their health due to high chemical sensitivity and past cancer diagnosis. The EcoNest’s simple design was the perfect choice for their needs. One of the many special features of this home is the use of Shoji Screen to create a unique natural lighting ambiance. Solar panels and the masonry heater add to the renewable energy efficiency of this handcrafted home.
