How the Nexthaus Alliance Is Building Passive Homes Through Sustainable Design

Building a sustainable luxury home requires far more than standard construction methods and materials—it requires a carefully orchestrated collaboration of experts dedicated to environmental responsibility. Around the Chicago area and Lake Michigan, the NextHaus Alliance is proving what's possible when forward-thinking professionals unite around this mission. 

As a key member of the alliance, Barrett’s Technology Solutions works with an elite group of Chicago’s best home design/build firms. Founder and Architect Nathan Kipnis, FAIA, is renowned for his commitment to sustainable architecture, and Berliant Builders is highly experienced in environmentally friendly construction. Interior designers Janet McCann and Lauren Coburn bring their aesthetic vision and expertise, and Bob Hursthouse of Hursthouse Landscape Architects provides outdoor and landscape design, installation, and maintenance. The result? Homes that minimize their environmental impact while still offering the modern technology, aesthetics, and conveniences that high-end homeowners expect. Let’s explore the NextHaus Alliance’s impact in more detail below.
