Featured in Metropolis: NYPH Board Chair Buck Moorhead is highlighted in a new feature on The Catskill Project, New York's first all–Passive House community. The article explores how the 90-acre, carbon-neutral development is redefining residential design by combining Passive House performance with ecological preservation, healthy indoor environments, and thoughtful community planning.

As lead architect, Buck shares insights into designing beautiful, durable, and high-performing homes using panelized construction, low-carbon materials, and climate-conscious detailing. The project demonstrates that Passive House is about far more than energy efficiency—it's a holistic approach to creating resilient communities that prioritize occupant health, long-term durability, and a lighter environmental footprint. The feature also highlights lessons learned, the importance of scaling high-performance housing, and the team's commitment to sharing their knowledge to accelerate climate-positive development.
