About Residence in Limassol VI ખાનગી નિવાસસ્થાન
લિમાસોલ VI માં રહેઠાણ એ લગભગ શૂન્ય ઊર્જા ધરાવતી ઇમારત તરીકે ડિઝાઇન કરાયેલું ખાનગી ઘર છે. આ ઘર દક્ષિણ તરફ અને દૃશ્ય તરફ ખુલે છે, અને થર્મલ કમ્ફર્ટ પ્રાપ્ત કરવા માટે સ્થાનિક પર્યાવરણીય પરિસ્થિતિઓનો ઉપયોગ કરે છે. એક સફેદ Z-આકારનું સ્વરૂપ સૂર્યથી રક્ષણ પૂરું પાડે છે અને ઢાંકેલી પાર્કિંગ જગ્યાને મુખ્ય વોલ્યુમ સાથે જોડે છે. મોટી બારીઓ દિવસનો પ્રકાશ અંદર લાવે છે અને આંતરિક ભાગને આસપાસના વાતાવરણ સાથે જોડે છે. લેઆઉટ સામુદાયિક અને ખાનગી વિસ્તારોને અલગ પાડે છે અને શેરીથી ગોપનીયતાનું રક્ષણ કરે છે. પ્રબલિત કોંક્રિટ માળખું બનાવે છે, અને સમગ્ર ઇમારત થર્મલી ઇન્સ્યુલેટેડ છે.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- The aim of this project in Limassol was the creation of an nZEB, bioclimatic house, which is open to the south and to the view, whilst it takes advantage of the environmental conditions in order to achieve thermal comfort. The need for sun protection was resolved by the creation of a white "Z" shaped form, which integrates the covered parking spot with the main building volume.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The building has a gross built area of 204 m2, and its anti-seismic capacity has been ensured by the use of the corresponding Eurocodes.
- Tags
- nZEB (Nearly Zero Energy Building), Bioclimatic design, Energy efficiency, Passive solar design, User comfort
- Production Technology
- Reinforced concrete was used for the structural system of the building, when the whole building was thermally insulated.
- Design Challenge
- The hardest part of this design endeavor was achieving the optimal balance between energy efficiency and occupant comfort. It required careful consideration of various factors, such as solar exposure, natural ventilation, insulation, and material choices. Balancing these elements while meeting the functional and aesthetic requirements of the building was a complex challenge. Additionally, integrating bioclimatic principles into the design required a deep understanding of environmental conditions and their impact on the building's performance. Overall, striking the right balance between sustainability and user satisfaction was the most demanding aspect of this design endeavor.
- Research
- The research methodology for designing this nZEB bioclimatic house involved a literature review, site analysis, simulations, design iterations, prototype testing, data analysis, and iterative refinement. By integrating theoretical research, data analysis, and practical experimentation, designers can optimize energy efficiency and occupant comfort, leading to a sustainable and high-performance building.
- Inspiration
- The need to investigate urban forms, for the creation of an nZEB building, in the noisy city, but in a calm, modernistic and simplistic way.
- Project Duration
- The project design started in 2019, and the construction was completed in 2022.
- Operation Flow
- This project aimed to create an environmentally friendly and energy-efficient house in Limassol. The design takes advantage of the natural conditions to provide a comfortable living space while saving energy. The building has a unique "Z" shape, with a white exterior that serves as a sun protection system. Large windows allow natural light and connect the interior with the outdoor surroundings. The layout of the house separates communal and private spaces and ensures privacy from the main street. The design follows a modern minimalist style, using exposed concrete, wooden surfaces, and a neutral color palette. Bioclimatic strategies like natural ventilation and thermal insulation were employed, along with high-performance HVAC systems and solar panels, resulting in a zero-energy balance building.
