Designing with thermohome technology

Termohouse

The company Valkyriа, offers you to develop the individual project of your house, on technology Termodom, by specialists of building department who have long-term experience of designing on the given technology.

Also, if you already have a project that originally involves the use of other wall materials, our specialists will promptly make its adaptation for construction on the energy-efficient technology Thermohome.

You can read more in detail about the building process, cost and additional options that we offer in the relevant sections of our site.

Terminology, which is most commonly used in the accompanying information to the project:

Living Area - The area of all living space in a building or house.

Living space does not include bathrooms, storage rooms, kitchens, hallways, basements, garages, etc. If there is a "cold" attic in the house, it will also not be considered a dwelling. If there are bedrooms, libraries, etc., an attic is considered a dwelling.

Total Floor Area - The total area of all rooms in a building bounded by the interior wall surfaces.

Building Area - The area that is bounded by the outer perimeter of the house. It includes terraces, garages, and porches.

Building volume - the volume of the building that is bounded by the exterior surface of the walls, the floor of the lower floor, and the roof.

Above ground floor - this term means a floor that has a floor above ground level, i.e. the first floor of a house.

Attic floor (mansard) - a room that is located in the attic and has a sloping ceiling.

Basement floor - floor that has a floor below ground level.

It is important to note that the basement may be called only the room the floor of which is below ground level for more than half the height of the floor.

Basement - a floor that has a floor below the ground level, but less than half the height of the entire floor.

How to properly orient rooms in a house? +
It’s best to place living areas on the south side to maximize natural sunlight and warmth. Utility rooms should be placed on the north side for optimal functionality.
How are utilities installed in a Termodom? +
Thermoblocks include hollow cavities for installing pipes up to 110 mm. It’s recommended to keep pipe lengths minimal for efficiency and reliability.
What is the recommended area per room? +
Around 30 m² of living space is suggested per person. Master bedrooms: 15–18 m2; children’s rooms: 14–18 m2 depending on needs.
How is ventilation planned? +
Multi-room houses should include mechanical supply and exhaust ventilation, as indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor air. Proper air exchange is essential.
Can the wall or roof system be changed? +
Yes. Valkyria’s architects adapt the design to suit the chosen materials and technology. Solutions are tailored to lifestyle, budget, and preferences.
What are the stages of architectural design? +
  • Concept design (master plan, facades, layouts);
  • Basic design (AR + structural + plumbing);
  • Full project (AR + structural + plumbing + HVAC + electrical) for turnkey construction.
How long does project development take? +
Concept design – up to 1 month; basic design – up to 1.5 months; full design – up to 6 months.
Can planning be adapted specifically for Termodom? +
Yes. Thermoblock systems support open layouts, creative zoning, and flexible space solutions thanks to the modular LEGO-like block system.
What are the benefits of thinner Termodom walls? +
Thinner thermoblock walls increase usable floor space, reduce material use, and speed up construction.
How to plan for efficient heating and cooling? +
Due to high energy efficiency (R ≥ 5 m2·K/W), modern systems like underfloor heating, air recuperators, and automated climate control are recommended.
