2x4 or 2x6 walls? A 2x4 cavity holds R-13 batts, a 2x6 holds R-20 to R-21. Studs leak heat, so a 2x6 wall at 24 in kept 80% of its rating vs 72% for a 2x4 at 16 in. #buildingscience www.modernacrestudio.com
Two wall sections side by side: a 2x4 wall with a 3.5 in insulated cavity and a 2x6 wall with a 5.5 in cavity. The same two wall sections labelled R-13 for the 2x4 cavity and R-20 to 21 for the 2x6 cavity. Plan cut through a wall with studs 16 in apart; heavy arrows show heat passing through the studs, a light arrow through insulation. Bar chart: 2x4 wall at 16 in delivers R-9.4 of its R-13 label; 2x6 wall at 24 in delivers R-15.2 of its R-19 label.

House is starting to look fancy. Next it gets a 3" spray foam sweater on the outside, a #buildingscience good practice.
A lakeside house with a butterfly roof. The house is a simple box, but had some interesting details like a bridge and large windows. View of the entranceway if the house, which immediately looks out to two large windows.
