Building Better Homes with the Passive House Principles. You cant call your home high-performance until you can prove how it performs with accurate thermally modelling

Mac Architecture, established by Certified Passive House Designer Jason Macquet, designs energy-efficient custom homes that are sustainable, comfortable, and built to last. Our focus is on new buildings seeking high performance and PassivHaus certification.

Building a custom home is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity so make sure you build a healthy home that will look after you for many years to come. This is why it is important have the right professionals helping you through this process.

Building your dream home is not a task we can do on our own and we believe that the best projects come from close collaboration with like minded partners. That is why we have teamed up with other industry leading companies, like Formance, to provide exceptional High-Performance homes.

"To truly have a high-performance home you need to know how your building will perform and you can only do this by thermally model it."

Mac Architecture are highly experienced with the use of Formance SIPS from a design and thermal modelling perspective. They offer an high-performance and user-friendly option to construct a low energy home.

We can model your building to accurately calculate how much energy it needs for heating in winter and if it will overheat in summer. We use the internationally recognised Passive House Planning Package (PHPP) to complete all our thermal modelling in house. We have the professional qualifications and expertise to complete the thermal modelling as a consultancy service allowing you to use your current architect or designer to complete the rest of the design work. Just be sure to engage us early in the process for we make suggestions to improve the performance before your plans are finalised.
