The style of this private residence was chosen in a conscious attempt to fit in with the 1930s buildings prevailing in Mežaparks, but the interior was to take a more contemporary approach. The house qualifies as a low-energy building, meeting the Passive House criteria adopted in Germany. Utilisation of the latest technology and as many regional materials as possible has achieved low energy consumption figures without forsaking extensive glazing and large amounts of daylight in the interior.
