Our homes "feel good" to live in and take advantage of seasonal solar patterns to be cool in the summer and warm in the winter. We use passive solar design principles, green building materials and proven "building science" construction details to ensure your home is solar-efficient, energy-efficient and resource-efficient. We also incorporate timeless architectural patterns and building strategies so your home will be durable, comfortable and healthy to live in.

Architectural & Systems Design
We work with clients throughout the design, permit approval and construction phases of a project. By staying engaged during the construction phases, SolarTerra LLC can monitor that the home is built using "building science" construction techniques and will meet the intended design and performance criteria. After a home is completed, SolarTerra LLC can assist our clients in maintaining their sustainable systems.

We design custom homes for urban, residential and off-grid locations. Each location offers different design considerations with off-grid being the most challenging and our specialty. Off-grid homes are often built where electricity, sewer and water are not available through a utility company or not easily accessible. In addition, remote vacation homes require more security, protection from winter freezing and quicker heating since they can be vacant for long periods.

We can recommend and partner with quality local builders to provide a complete Design/Build solution. By doing so, the builder is involved early and can collaborate on design ideas and construction details so eveyone is in sync during the construction phase of the project.

SolarTerra LLC designs homes to perform specifically in the Northern Arizona region and exceed the Coconino County Sustainable Building Program Certification criteria. SolarTerra LLC is a member of the US Green Building Council and Architecture 2030 and is committed to the 2030 Challenge.
