Airloom Score a home
A living room in low sun: floor-to-ceiling windows, a linen curtain, plants and a sofa in warm light

Pilot · every score done by a person

Find a home you never want to leave.

Light that reaches the back of the room. Ceilings you notice. We measure how a home will feel to live in, from its floor plan, before you buy it.

The problem

Listings measure energy. Not life.

A listing shows the price, the square metres and the energy class. So that is what new buildings are designed to hit.

Big windows make a good energy class harder to reach. Small ones make it easy. A flat can be rated A+ and still feel like a box.

Buyers cannot ask for light, tall ceilings or solid walls, because no listing measures them. Airloom does.

    What we measure

    No adjectives. Every point in a score traces back to a measurement and where it came from.

    3.10 m ceilingwindow head 2.80 mdaylight reaches 6.5 m

    Light

    • Window area per room, against the floor it has to light
    • How high the windows reach, and how deep the rooms run
    • Which way it faces, how many sides it opens to
    • Balconies and loggias that shade the room below

    Height and air

    • Ceiling height
    • Parapet height: can you see out when you sit down?
    • Outdoor space deep enough for a table

    Solid walls

    • Construction and wall thickness
    • Sound insulation between flats, or the fact that none is published
    • Glazing

    Outlook

    • Distance to the building opposite
    • What may still be built there
    • Shading, heating demand, summer heat

    Built on the European daylight standard, EN 17037, and the national building rules, not on taste. The method is public, so anyone can check a score.

    The check almost nobody makes

    The lot across the street is empty today, so the flat is sunny today. The zoning plan says how tall it may be built. We read it, and tell you how much sky you could lose.

    Vienna first. Italy and Portugal next.

    See the home it could be

    Most buyers see a house as it is. Airloom Potential shows the score it could reach, and the moves that get it there.

    Illustration. Whether a wall carries load cannot be known from a plan alone: every "probably" is confirmed by a structural engineer before anyone picks up a hammer.

    Build it with friends

    Near Lisbon, a duplex with a double-height living room, a wall of glass, a garden in the middle and a shop downstairs is listed at €4 million. The things that make it lovable cost a fraction of that.

    A few households, each putting in what a good flat costs anyway, can commission a building like that. No developer between you and tall windows. Neighbours you chose.

    Today’s score and the score the home could reach: walls that could probably go, openings that could grow, and a rough cost for each move.

    For a €500,000 house, less than 0.1 % of the price. A structural engineer confirms every "probably" before any work.

    Why you can trust a score

    Never paid by whoever is scored

    No developer, builder or prefab maker pays us to be rated, featured or recommended. Not once.

    Every number has a source

    The plan, the page, the date. Where a developer publishes nothing, we say so.

    The method is public

    Published before the first named score, so anyone can redo the sums.
