Through high insulation and airtightness, combined with solar panels and battery storage, we design homes that achieve net-zero energy consumption (ZEH), and we work with insulation grades 6 and 7, allowing comfortable living without reliance on heating even in winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We believe this is essential\u2014not only to reduce the physical burden on those who live there, but also to pass on the Earth&#8217;s environment to the next generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet, we also feel that a home cannot be complete through artificial comfort alone, sealed off from the outside world. The comfort within, and the daily discoveries that arise from a connection to the outside. It is the coexistence of these two, within a single architecture, that we hold dear.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-s-design-farm-philosophy-content\"><div class=\"view\"><h3 class=\"block-title\"><strong>Spaces that Stir the Heart<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not believe that measurable performance alone defines the value of a home.

We take time to engage with each place, gathering up phenomena often overlooked in daily life, and drawing them into the space we design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The discoveries and moments of quiet wonder born from this process, we believe, will enrich the daily lives\u2014and the very lives\u2014of those who dwell there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;A home is a vessel for a life fulfilled.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is our design philosophy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-s-design-farm-philosophy-content is-style-gothic\"><div class=\"view\"><h3 class=\"block-title\">High-Performance Housing: Our Work and Track Record<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since 2024 we have made ZEH housing a central part of our design work, steadily increasing its share of the homes we build.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"756\" height=\"756\" src=\"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/ZEH-adoption-rate_en.png\" alt=\"ZEH adoption rate\" class=\"wp-image-1095\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"756\" height=\"756\" src=\"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/projects-by-insulation-grade_en.png\" alt=\"Number of projects by insulation grade\" class=\"wp-image-1094\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-47","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/47","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/47\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1097,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/47\/revisions\/1097"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
