Family House in a new residential area - nr_26
Being located in a new residential zone in the city surrounded by few homes, the design goal was set up to block out the outside world while avoiding too much closure, as well as to provide rich and sensuous spaces. First, a small patio and a path connected to it were laid out between the living or dining room and exterior. Enclosed by walls that create indirect light filling softly the entire room, the house presents sentimental scenes here and there. A dry-constructed outer wall stimulates an open and voluntary dialogue with the different aspects of the local climate. The living spaces and the life lived there are enveloped by green and light, creating an affectionate environment. The home's program also hinged around using both passive and active green features. Sustainable elements include geothermal heating/cooling, rainwater harvesting, spray foam insulation, high efficiency glazing recessing lower spaces into the hillside on the west side, and roof/overhang design to provide passive solar coverage of walls and windows.
