Buildings would be valued by how they support our health & wellbeing? lecture at the Royal Architects Institute of Canada Festival of Architecture, Ottawa May 2017. By Lone Feifer.
The document discusses moving towards an Active House standard for 2025 that promotes zero carbon buildings through renewable energy integration. It suggests defining different "prosumer levels" within the Active House framework to document buildings' renewable energy contributions and carbon neutrality over their lifetimes. This could help establish a stable market for building-integrated photovoltaics to meet renewable energy goals for 2025 while ensuring good architecture and building quality.
Alexander Kucheravy is an architect from Belarus who has been working with energy efficient and sustainable design for over 10 years. He became an Active House verifier in 2017 and helped develop the Active House Guidelines in 2015. Kucheravy has implemented Active House principles on two projects, a Multi-Comfort House in Belarus (2013) and an OptimaHouse in Ukraine (2015). Currently based in Ukraine, he promotes Active House concepts adapted to local climate and culture through his architectural practice.
This document discusses the 'Sunde Boliger' housing project in Holstebro, Denmark. It was designed by Pluskontoret Architects, Lendager Group, and MOE Consulting Engineers, along with professor Torben Sigsgaard from Århus University. The project focuses on indoor climate and creating healthy living conditions through strategies like passive design, natural ventilation, daylight, and avoiding toxic materials. It also discusses research and demonstrations to bridge the gap between research and practical applications.

It summarizes Velux's vision of leading development of better living environments with daylight and fresh air. It describes a decade of full-scale experiments testing sustainable building principles. It also discusses findings from a European healthy homes barometer survey that found most Europeans see daylight and fresh air as important for healthy living.
The document discusses two sustainable housing developments in the UK that were designed and built to meet various levels of the UK's Code for Sustainable Homes. It provides examples of how the ZeroC development company approached achieving higher Code levels at a Glove Factory redevelopment in Yeovil and the Osprey Quay development in Dorchester. Key sustainability measures discussed include the use of renewable energy sources like biomass boilers and solar panels, as well as water conservation, sustainable materials, and other ecological features. Meeting the Code requirements took an integrated design approach from the start of the projects.
The document summarizes the experience and qualifications of an architect. It details that he has 20 years of experience managing a variety of projects from £150K to £3.2M. As Associate Director at an award-winning firm, his role is to promote innovation in construction techniques. The firm has won several RIBA awards. He has experience as a design advisor, lecturer, and examiner and is also on the board of a concrete company. His key projects include low energy homes from £500K to £1.5M from 2009 to 2015.

Redefining Sustainable Design: The New AIA COTE MeasuresEskew+Dumez+Ripple
The American Institute of Architects (AIA) Committee on the Environment (COTE) is the oldest U.S. program dedicated to sustainable design. In 1997, COTE introduced its annual Top Ten Awards, “the profession's best known recognition program for sustainable design excellence” (AIA), to celebrate exemplary projects and give the industry guidance on how to integrate green building principles. In 2015, to mark its 25th anniversary, COTE embarked on a landmark research initiative to study the first two decades of Top Ten, published in 2016 as Lessons from the Leading Edge. Part of the research was to revisit the program’s criteria of evaluation, known as the COTE Measures of Sustainable Design. The result of this effort was to overhaul the program with a completely new set of principles and metrics. The 2017 Top Ten Awards are the first year to use new criteria such as economic impact and more robust metrics for health and resilience. In this presentation, three members of the COTE Advisory Group presented the new criteria and engage the audience in a lively discussion about what defines sustainable design.

This document summarizes Nathan Gauthier's lecture on sustainable design basics and the integrated design process. It introduces Nathan and the course topics, which include sustainability in Rwanda, integrated design processes, and subjects that will be covered. An example is provided about how switching from 10 to 6 air changes per hour at a building called Weld Hill saved $130,000 in first costs and $22,000 annually in energy costs. The draft ANSI standard for an integrated design process is discussed as an alternative to the traditional design process.
The document summarizes a design project for a dual-purpose stool and table called Tableng meant to bring families together. It was designed for a fair trade program in Cambodia using local materials like iron and water hyacinth. Research found lack of family quality time leads to child issues. The design evolved from a butterfly chair and allows use by a fireplace or for board games. Analysis found the steel design uses less energy, emissions and water than aluminum. The final design is affordable yet high quality and sustainable to fulfill the goals of increasing family time and commercial success. Future recommendations include different sustainable materials.

New learning spaces for a new pedagogical designCaféine.Studio
Nicolas ROLAND, ULB Podcast, Université de Bruxelles
So far, the arrangement of teaching and learning spaces in academic institutions has been usually based on a transmissive pedagogy and on an over-valuation of face-to-face teaching methods. As a result, we have noticed a mismatch between learning spaces and students’ digital practices as well as a certain rigidity towards more active teaching methods. By developing the close relationships tying space to digital technology and the stakeholders, this communication aims to show that the evolution of teaching and learning practices requires a substantial rethinking of academic spaces. In auditoriums, as well in study places, teachers and students indeed need spaces allowing them to create new learning experiences (social interaction, group work, etc.).
This document discusses green architecture and sustainable building. It covers the components and features of green buildings like passive design, renewable energy sources, and energy efficiency. Green buildings provide benefits to inhabitants such as lower utility costs, better indoor air quality, and reduced environmental impact. Overall, the document promotes green building as a strategy for creating a more sustainable built environment.
This document provides information about AktivPlus e.V., a non-profit organization in Germany that promotes energy efficiency and sustainability in the real estate sector. It develops standards for buildings and districts. As a competence network, it shares knowledge between members and discusses with political stakeholders. It also transfers knowledge to experts and clients. The document outlines AktivPlus' steering committee, advisory board, timeline, intended standard criteria, specification, certification (AktivPlus Ausweis), tools, case studies of certified buildings including their energy concepts and balances, and targets for CO2 emissions and life cycle costs.
This document discusses an upcoming Active House Symposium to be held in 2018 at the Lecco Campus of Politecnico di Milano in Italy. It provides background information on the Active House approach, the new Lecco Campus facility, and upcoming publications and research projects related to Active House principles. The symposium will bring together international experts and researchers to discuss innovative and holistic building design methods for high-performance, nearly-zero energy buildings.

29. Comfort
The daylight in hotel rooms, entrance
hall, corridors and conference rooms has
reached daylight factors above 5%.
A thermal balance strategy has brought
the building to the highest level by use of
a ventilation strategy based on the use of
the building and season.
The air quality reach the highest level
with natural ventilation based on user
needs and use of materials supporting
good air quality.

34. Energy
The modernization of the existing
building has improved it to the
second best level for energy
demand. This has been reached
through use of energy efficient
technologies and minimizing the
need for artificial lighting,
mechanical cooling etc, topics that
are normally high in hotels and
conferences areas.
The renewable energy cover app 50%
of the energy needed in the
building.

35. The terraces in front of the hotel rooms had
a railing of concrete, which is now replaced
with a glazed railing allowing for better
daylight conditions as well as the
integration of PV into the railing give guests
a signal of sustainability
The skylights in the entrance area and
hallways create a good atmosphere and
well daylighted rooms. The integration
of the PV in the south orientated
skylights makes production of
renewable energy visible for guests.

Having many
large windows
doesn’t
necessarily
lead to
overheating
Plenty of
daylight
eliminates your
need for
artificial
lighting during
the day
Moderate
bedroom
temperatures
ensure a good
night’s sleep
Good
ventilation
lowers the

during the
night
Solar screening
protects your

overheating
To get the full
effect, you
need
intelligent
automation
Natural
ventilation
provides good
indoor air
quality during
large parts of
the year
Mechanical
ventilation
meets CO2 level
standards, but
doesn’t satisfy
the increased

A QUALITY ISSUE
”Sustainable building is as much about health and happiness
indoors as it is about energy consumption.”
“anthropocentricism is necessary for the sustainability
technologies standards so that they are developed for a
balance between technological automation and human
initiative.”
“The overall result has been that energy has become an idée
fixe, in turn affecting the other problem of quality”

THE NEXT PARADIGM
“advocating for what we call Buildingomics – a new
approach that examines the totality of factors in the
building-related environment that influence the
human health, well-being and productivity of people
who work in buildings.”
“through Buildingomics’ multi-disciplinary approach,
we aim to better understand the building-related
factors that influence health in buildings and unlock
the ability to optimize buildings for cognitive function
and health.“
