The Design
About Home PE3 Bostadshus
Home PE3 är ett bostadshus beläget i Cittadella, Padua, Italien. Designen svarar mot den historiska medeltida stadens befästningsmurar av tegel. Två stora väggar klädda i synligt tegel definierar byggnadens form och skyddar interiören mot trädgården. En specialanpassad version av MAAX-teglet togs fram tillsammans med ett historiskt tegelföretag och installerades med en ventilerande luftspalt, vilket skapar en andande vägg. Byggnadens grundyta är cirka 500 kvadratmeter, med en bottenvåning, en övervåning och en källare för garage och förråd. De inre utrymmena är flexibla och kan förändras i takt med att familjen växer.

- Production Technology
- For this project, with the historic brick Company Terreal Italia SanMarco, we designed a custom version of the MAAX brick that is the main material used for this house. It was installed with the most advance cladding techniques leaving a ventilation air gap between the structure and the bricks to make a breathing wall.
- Design Challenge
- The creative process for this project followed two well defined path that, at the end, converged in one unique result. The dialogue with the medieval walls of the historic city of Cittadella and the will of a sustainable green architecture.Those were the two main challenge that were developed in the research to accomplish the final result.
- Research
- The research started by analyzing all he possible brick cladding technology and energy saving possibility throught the use of green materials. The goal was to obtain a great confort and and "easy" constructive system that will guarantee a rapid, clean and efficient construction method. We, with the Client, strongly believed in this sustainable approach and the results, now that house in inhabitant, are already evident in the energy and consumption saving.
- Inspiration
- The project was inspired by the context and in particular by the brick fortified walls of the historic medieval city of Cittadella, in Italy. The choice of using brick as the main material is underlined by the use of it also inside the house as a distinctive element for all the the levels of the building. Furthermore, the score of the openings on the brick facades are deliberately in assonance with the elements that characterize the surrounding walls of the historic city.
