The green @Accoya cladding, from @RusswoodUK, on our #passivhaus is a great backdrop to colourful plants in the garden!

Great to see completion of the #iceboxchallengeGlasgow yesterday. Ice in the Building regs box had melted some time ago. Passivhaus box retained 121kg of ice despite unseasonal Glasgow weather. Lots of local interest. Passivhaus works in Scotland. #passivhaus – at Glasgow, Scotland

Three years ago we finished building our #passivhaus and then made our #garden pond. Create the habitat and #wildlife will appear... 🌿🐝#TwitterNatureCommunity 🐞🦋

The #snow is not melting on the roof of our #passivhaus today. The house is so well #insulated, the heat inside does not escape through the roof. #winter #Scotland

Laws of thermodynamics at work... :-). For the same reason coffee in a thermos stays hot. Science for the people: This is, how a globalization oriented on the human needs can look like: We don't need "energy"; we need comfort.

A chilly morning in #Fife, only 6C outside at 9am, but very comfortable in our #Passivhaus with no heating. Loving the benefits of living in a #Passivhaus!

This little bird crashed into our glass door and stunned itself. It just sat quietly for a while but fortunately recovered enough to fly away. #Chiffchaff or #WillowWarbler?
A very welcome visitor to our #Fife #garden this morning. We gave him some peanuts and he stayed a while and entertained us with his antics and curiosity! #RedSquirrel

#SelfBuild is never easy....
This month’s column for @pressjournal puts you in the shoes of a house martin. Not that they have shoes 🤔. Anyway I had a lot of fun writing this one 🙂 pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/opi…

We've had lots of damselflies visit our almost 2 year old #garden #pond in the last few days, then this beauty appeared! Is is it a Four-spotted Chaser? @BDSdragonflies
