Textual content description supplied by the architects. A really slim however extremely frequented road, with decreased parking chance for the contractors, the shopper wished to maneuver again in as quickly as doable (brief building time). Sustainability is the important thing side of constructing building: large discount of the carbon footprint by the utilization of native wooden and native insulation materials (blown-in cellulose).


Brief transportation methods because of the choice of native contractors and supplies. Excavation earth was reused as a rammed-earth sitting bench within the backyard. Photo voltaic panels on the rooftop + warmth pump present electrical power and sizzling water. As a result of thickness of the constructing insulation (26cm, whole wall thickness of 40cm), the heating price was decreased by 50%.

Prefabricated, sandwich-like, insulated pine wooden panels, mounted collectively on web site by 4 individuals utilizing a cell crane inside 5 hours, vertical wooden planks utilized as a end and safety on the outside, groove, and tongue connections, decreased quantity of screws and bolts, wall prefabrication utilizing fashionable CNC-cut expertise within the meeting corridor 37 km away from the development web site.

Digital artwork. Building facade with a programmed 3d shadow aid: CNC-wave-cut vertical facade planks solid a shadow of an open eye within the morning and a closed eye within the afternoon, giving a “dwelling” impact to the outside pores and skin of the constructing and creating an interplay with the encompassing.
