Nestled in a wooded area in the Pacific Northwest, the 1,800-square-foot Passive Cedar Haus was built as a retirement home. The Artisans Group, who designed the layout of the home, were mindful of the needs of residents who would be aging in place, and met a complex program with an unheated sleeping porch for a master bedroom, a screened porch, a 600-square-foot caretakers’ apartment/in-law unit, large wood shop, plus a two car carport.
