What makes it Green:
Award-winning architect Nate Kipnis graces this fabulous Lincoln Street location with two townhomes of high style and ecological efficiency.
High Design and Low Carbon.
Two new modern townhouses, incorporate numerous green features while providing a healthy, comfortable and dramatic interior. Located at 1831-33 Lincoln Street in Evanston, Illinois, the townhomes have been sited to take full advantage of the sun. The south facing front set of windows captures the low winter sun while calculated overhangs block the summer sun.
Solar panels on the roof provide hot water for the domestic water system and are integrated into the high efficiency zoned forced air furnace. Natural flow thru ventilation is designed into the floor plan. The homes are 5 star Energy Star rated, which translates into a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions and energy use.
Green materials used include:
- Cement fiberboard panels bolted to the exterior
- Concrete countertops
- Numerous natural materials on the interior
- Low V.O.C. adhesives and finishes throughout
- Minimal use of recycled content carpeting
- Recycled tire roof decking and native, draught resistant landscaping
At 2800 square feet each, the units have a minimal footprint while making the most of the site. One unit has an exterior rear yard, while the other has a large roof deck. A series of striking aligned decks on the front facade help to integrate the various materials.
The location of the site is itself a green ideal - within a block of the Chicago Northwestern train station and the Central Street shopping district.
Enter your home and enjoy beautiful sustainable bamboo flooring, tremendous storage, full bath and two separate living/office areas for flexible living over the years. Outstanding space yet efficient flow are yours in this sleek kitchen with polished concrete counters and lacquer finished cabinets.
Slate floors soak up the passive solar sun and large eating area overlooks private yard. Relax at the kitchen bar area or dine formally in the expansive great room. Feel the sun pour through the south-facing windows at precise angles that shade it in summer and warm it in winter!
Gorgeous slate fireplace and hearth grace the living area, off of which is a spacious cedar deck. Large enough for entertaining yet warm enough to settle in with your family. Bathed in light and enhanced by a large private cedar deck, the master bedroom has rich bamboo flooring, an enormous closet and a highly styled bath with porcelain tile and abundant natural light.
Enjoy your own private yard and two 1-car garages.
