A ground up construction of a luxury single family home in Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn.
An inaugural project for a nascent developer required careful attention to detail. Morozov worked hand in hand with the architect and developer to craft solutions that worked with the owner’s vision for the building. Morozov efficiently and successfully secured utility connection approvals and assisted the client in resolving filing and approval issues.
Morozov consulted the owner on high performance building strategies, such as passive heating and cooling, insulation and envelope air-tightness, intelligent lighting controls, highly efficient domestic water heating and continuous ventilation with energy recovery. With the exception of domestic water heating, the building does not use natural gas or any other fuel for heating, and is cooled and heated with a variable-refrigerant flow system. Highly insulated envelope, and not relying on gas for heating are expected to save 20 metric tons of Carbon Dioxide emissions on an annual basis.
