Energy efficient residential poject for two families
The two houses together with the neighboring buildings form a cozy courtyard. The south garden offers much peace and quiet, away from the street noise. All living rooms have a direct connection to the outdoor space. The numerous balconies and terraces are well interconnected.
Both houses are provided with a controlled ventilation system. Additional heating is supplied by a common ground water heat pump and distributed through a ground heating system. In addition to that, fireplace fixtures have been foreseen for room-independantly ventilated single-room fireplaces. Aside from extensive heat storing volumes reached through massive construction, a cooling opportunity through the ground heating system is also available.
