Zetland Passive House

In the 4m high rear living area sits a wood burning stove, which whilst not needed to heat the property adds a little winter luxury. By drawing its air from outside the property the stove avoids the drafts typically caused by chimneys and exacerbated by lighting fires. The organic armchair and sofa are made by Ecosofa, one of the only producers of completely natural sofas. These chairs are filled with horsehair and wool and covered in organic fabrics, so there is no chemical off-gassing. http://www.ecosofa.co.uk/ Hair on hide rugs supplied by Spire Leather in Chesterfield, one of the last remaining leather tanneries in the UK.
