It sounds like the most economical way to do this would be to take an existing room and build an inner wall frame with ceiling and raised floor, and fill the wall space with insulation.

I don't plan on doing this, I am mainly interested in how to calculate it. I am interested in how a small, well insulated house could be built with minimal heating needs, and how solar heat can be stored to reduce fuel use.
