About Living the Gardens Villu komplekss
Living the Gardens ir deviņu villu dzīvojamais komplekss Kankunā, Meksikā, kas uzbūvēts 2373 kvadrātmetru lielā teritorijā. Katrai villai ir trīs stāvi, un tās platība ir no 216 līdz 275 kvadrātmetriem. Pirmajā stāvā atrodas dzīvojamā istaba, ēdamistaba, virtuve, terase, tualete un iekšējais dārzs. Augšējā stāvā atrodas galvenā guļamistaba un divas papildu guļamistabas. Katrai villai ir arī jumta dārzs. Vietējie materiāli un pasīvā bioklimatiskā projektēšana samazina enerģijas patēriņu, savukārt koka žalūzijas un vietējā veģetācija nodrošina aizsardzību pret sauli.

- Production Technology
- The project is entirely built with local materials because, more than an economic benefit, it reduces the environmental impacts of transporting materials long distances and supports the local economy.
- Design Challenge
- The structural challenge was to avoid structural support elements on the ground floor. The structure was solved in a way that the rooftop carries the intermediate slab with columns that, work in tension instead of compression, just like the tensioners in a steel structure. In other words, the ground floor roof is hanging from the rooftop. Imitating a steel structure, the slabs function as the lower and upper chord, the lateral columns function as tensioners and the block walls work as diagonals
- Research
- The first step to obtain a sustainable housing product is to make a climate analysis and to search and apply the best bioclimatic and sustainable strategies for the project. In the region, the climate is warm and humid, and due to these characteristics, the project implements solar protection, natural cross-ventilation and use of native vegetation. The application of these and other strategies make a sustainable and low energy consumption housing product.
- Inspiration
- The project aims to promote the reduction of the use of resources, economic savings and a more sustainable housing product through passive and bioclimatic design.
- Project Duration
- The project started in 2021 in Cancun, Mexico and is planned to be finished in 2023.
- Operation Flow
- Solar protection is a requirement to obtain a more energy effective dwelling in most climates, but in a hot climate like the one where Living The Gardens is built, it is essential. The project is protected from solar incidence with native vegetation, the volumetry of the building itself and wooden louvers located in the south facade, where the solar incidence is more intense.
