With a habitable surface area of 108m², the house was built in collaboration with French residential construction company Maisons Bernard Jambert and meets the requirements of LEB (low-energy building) certification with energy consumption of 48kWh/m² p.a. It is also in line with French Thermal Regulation 2005 (RT 2005) and is ahead of its time in relation to the 2012 regulation!
The Jambert-LafargeHolcim house, which receives an A-rated energy label, was built by combining a bioclimatic design, the choice of a efficient construction system, good thermal insulation and air-tightness as well as the incorporation of high-performance technical equipment.
