Project Spotlight: Wood-Based Insulation In The Desert On Arizona’s First Smart Enclosure Assembly

Lucas Johnson, Western Regional Manager of 475 High Performance Building Supply, walks us through this 20-slide, 6.5 minute PechaKucha-style presentation on the fundamentals of his favorite recent project in Arizona. This home was a collaboration between Beckett Construction, Design Tank, and Vali Homes, with the client setting the directive to build for optimized health, low-carbon materials, and the highest performance possible. Lucas focuses on the use of Gutex wood fiber board insulation and Pro Clima airtightness and vapor control to achieve the aspirational goals of this project.
