Design and construction of the Northern Sustainable House – Arviat, Nunavut . : NH18-22/115-3E-PDF

This project demonstrates that sustainable housing technologies and practices can be successfully deployed within the very challenging context of northern housing. In this respect, integrated design charrettes have a role to play in transforming local industry and consumer attitudes, awareness and knowledge regarding higher performance housing. Active engagement of all stakeholders from planning through to the commissioning can help innovative housing projects meet their objectives. The project also demonstrated the importance of quality assurance protocols to help ensure materials and systems are installed as planned and performed as expected. Finally, the project shows how innovative technologies and practices can be applied to housing projects in the Far North and the challenges associated with the deployment and maintenance of such systems.
