Type

Residential › Private House

The “GREENville
House”/Walters Residence is composed of two primary design components: bars and
panels. Each acts together to generate an environmentally sensitive response.
Narrow bars composed of private space branch out into the landscape to create
courtyards, capture natural light, allow cross ventilation, and intersect to
form a central volume of double height public space. Open to the kitchen and
dining and a balcony and loft above, this central volume aligns with compelling
views of the landscape. A structural system holding photovoltaic panels and
perforated screens is responsible for creating the home’s energy and hot water
while shading openings to alleviate unnecessary heat gain. The building’s
orientation on the site utilizes the maximum potential of the photovoltaic
technology, decreasing the overall load on the geothermal HVAC system.
