In this episode of the Passive House Podcast, Ilka Cassidy talks with Evan Greulich, project architect and manager at Quinn Evans, about his work bringing high-performance building strategies to affordable housing and, increasingly, to schools. Evan and Ilka chat about The Hammond at Greenmount Park, a new 109-unit affordable housing project in Baltimore and John Burroughs Elementary School in Washington, DC. The conversation covers the practical tradeoffs of building near-Passive performance without certification, the challenges of balancing historic preservation with airtightness and insulation strategies, and why Evan believes the biggest opportunity for passive building growth lies beyond housing.
