from the website:

"We came to the US from Europe - Slovakia 5 years ago. It wasn’t our goal to built the house here but it happened and here is our short story. We became land owners sometimes in February 2009. It is unbelievable but we couldn’t find anything for sale that we liked and could afford at the same time. Maybe because we are from Europe and we have different needs and opinions on living or maybe because we are architects and we were thinking we can do better ourselves. We had been planning our home for a while and we found vacant land with south - north orientation for sale in Wheat Ridge, CO where our design would fit perfectly. Briefly, the house is around 1500sf plus detached double car garage. 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, single story, slab on grade, open floor plan, staggered double studs walls - spray foam insulated, full height windows, radiant heating, HR fan ventilation system, mini split AC (future), exterior rain screen system, large patio and breeze way between garrage and house. In general we were aiming for a low energy home."
