House "Seasons"

House "Seasons" 


An attempt to design a building for temperate climates, which improves living conditions in the intermediate seasons, spring and  autumn.
The house is also a bungalow and small to decrease footprint and limit heating requirements.

Basic design consists of a highly insulated inside winter "Block" surrounded by a 4 piece greenhouse for increased solar gain in winter and extra living space in spring an autumn.
The greenhouse opening up in summer and automatically ventilate by opening separate panels in autumn an s spring. The greenhouse also allow vegetables of other plants to grow most of the year. The green growth in the greenhouse will also enhance the climatic conditions in the house.
Of course energy plus, recyclable materials and passive house standards. SIPS panels, lime render, little or no concrete.

Hope you will like the design.

Fabric formed concrete

Found this very interesting technique, with potentially nice achitectural and structural consequences.
Fabric formed concrete, youtube lecture.

Organic architecture to the limit, glass fibre reinforced lightweight concrete, moulded on geotextiles.
Natural creased vaulted ceilings, which are naturally buckle resistant.
