| DESIGN NAME: ECO360 PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residential House INSPIRATION: Even though the project is small in scale spatial complexity was needed as the house geometry uses minimal volume, optimal orientation regarding the view and the sun and appropriate glass percentage to gain heat loads from incoming sun rays during winter and to prevent direct sun penetration during summer. The building envelope was designed to minimize summer cooling load and the simulations during the design phase guaranteed the best results in real life. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Eco360 is a single-family home located near Tel Aviv, Israel. The goal of the project was to build a sustainable home that would be Energy-Positive and include excellent indoor air and light quality while reflecting the beauty of the surroundings. The client wanted to build a home that could demonstrate, highlight, and set an example of what could be done to build a home based on ecological principles.The house reveals the ideas of sustainability with more than fifty green design features. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: BIM (Building Information Modeling) allowed the team to design accurately and ecologically the house and improved the coordination during the building process. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in 2016 and finished in 2018. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Architecture, Building and Structure Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Passive design, Geometrical optimization, Compact design, 16.2 KWP PV system for energy independence, Solar optimizers, Natural ventilation, Ventilated facades, Shaded terraces, Thermal performance, Smart house system with several sensor types, Biological water treatment with wet lands, Succulent garden, Green Wall. Materials: Local materials such as Ytong blocks with r value of 2.2, double glazing with Low E, LED lights, FSC certified wood parquet, high durability facade and deck made from renewable bamboo fibers and recycled plastic. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 250 square meter house with 4 bedrooms. 75% of the site allows water to be discharged slowly into the soil. Producing 2 times the energy demands. TAGS: eco360, passive design, sustainability, geotectura, joseph cory, energy positive RESEARCH ABSTRACT: energy analysis was conducted during the design phase and will be compared with the real time results of the house operation. CHALLENGE: The challenge was how to design a passive house in which usually the main facade is pointing to the south while in this case the view was to the west which is harder to control with passive design techniques and unique geometrical optimization was needed.
