"Trillium designed a new green house for us. We are so thrilled with how it came out. Just beautiful, functional, comfortable, and very environmental (like all their work!).  And they are such nice people to work with--we feel like we are part of the family." -Greg + Nancy

Built to conform to LEED Gold standards, this 2,700 sf house in Westport, CT, was featured on the 2014 Green Homes Tour. The owners, a family with children, sought to create an energy-efficient, right-sized home that met their needs on a budget. The design’s farmhouse-like simplicity and clarity of line conceals a series of systems, which make the house as responsive to the environment as is it is respectful of its New England setting.
