About

Bygghouse is a building technology company focused on commercializing Scandinavian approaches to energy performance in buildings.

Our Mission

“Coming in From the Cold” (1985) was the first published work to recognise how builders in Sweden had improved the overall average energy performance of housing. Bygghouse exists to translate these construction ideas into products and systems that work for American and Canadian builders.
