Passive house design in Budapest – tomorrow's homes today

ATELIERR Budapest architecture studio works with certified passive house design engineers. A passive house is not a trend but a precise technical standard – and the smartest investment in the future.

What is a passive house?

A passive house is a precise technical standard: maximum 15 kWh/m²/year heating demand, tested airtightness (n50 ≤ 0.6/h), thermal bridge-free construction. A 150 m² passive house costs only €100–300 annually to heat – compared to €1,000–2,000 for conventional buildings.

Technical design

Energy pre-calculation and consulting, optimal orientation and massing, thermal insulation and airtightness design, thermal bridge-free junction solutions, heat recovery ventilation system design, renewable energy integration (solar, heat pump).

ROI & living comfort

Passive house extra investment is 10–15% of construction cost, paying back in 15–20 years from lower utility costs. Property market value is 10–15% higher. Living comfort is incomparable: even temperature, no drafts, filtered fresh air year-round.

Our expertise

Our studio director, Rozália Bálint, holds a certified passive house designer qualification and guest lectures on sustainable architecture at BME, Óbuda University, and University of Pécs. Passive house is not a form constraint: our portfolio includes modern, organic, and classic style energy-efficient homes.
