osda Architecture + Consulting Featured in Wayves Magazine

We’re thrilled to share that osda Architecture + Consulting has been spotlighted in Wayves Magazine’s latest business profile series! In a recent feature by Dan MacKay, our founder and principal architect, Nilton Lin, shares insights into our mission of creating health-focused, energy-efficient Passive House designs right here in Saint John, NB.

Wayves Magazine's article dives into what makes Passive Homes exceptional—emphasising their health benefits, energy efficiency, and long-term cost savings. From dust-free, odour-free air to minimal energy consumption, these homes are designed not only to endure extreme weather but to offer unparalleled comfort and savings over time.

Nilton also reflects on his journey from Taiwan to New Brunswick and how his experiences have shaped OSDA's commitment to sustainable design. The article highlights the challenges and rewards of advocating for Passive House standards in a region where these concepts are still emerging.

As Nilton explains, despite the initial costs of building a Passive House, the long-term benefits make it a worthy investment. The piece also touches on the need for broader education about the advantages of such homes and how OSDA is striving to lead by example.

The feature also delves into Nilton’s personal story, including his move to Saint John and the balance he finds in both his professional and personal life. His passion for sustainable architecture and his dedication to making a positive impact on the environment come through vividly in the interview.
