This simple wooden house provides a comfortable home for the local forest runner and his family. The house follows Passivhaus principles, boasting a remarkable low CO2 footprint of 5.1 kg CO2/m2/year, surpassing Denmark's future sustainability requirements. This achievement is attributed to thoughtful design, orientation, the use of wood as a primary material, wood fiber insulation, and a well-insulated climate envelope. The Danish Nature Agency is eco-friendly, it provides indoor comfort, and it is cost-effective.
