Anderson Architecture has designed Waverley Residence where is laid in Waverley, a suburb region of Sydney, Australia. This contemporary house design determines and applies the house energy needs, one of them is passive solar using. See inside the house, the elegant modern interior is arranged and combined to passive solar technique, ant thermal modeling.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><a name="more"></a><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Waverley Residence by <a href="http://www.andersonarchitecture.com.au/" target="_blank">Anderson Architecture</a>:</span></div><blockquote class="tr_bq"><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">“This project is our most thermally efficient house to date, developed through the use of in house computerized thermal modeling.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">The house requires very little heating or cooling, utilizing passive solar techniques, internal thermal mass and natural ventilation to maintain a comfortable, healthy indoor environment.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">A challenging aspect, with excessive western exposure and a large existing building to the north, helped define the lofty roof forms which capture northern light.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">A run down weatherboard house in Waverley, with a large neighbour immediately to the north, seems an unlikely starting point for contemporary family home featuring exemplar environmental credentials. This however was the brief from the clients who requested a warm and modern 4 bedroom house with a strong connection to the outdoors and minimal reliance on artificial heating, cooling and lighting.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">The project was conceived from the outset with sustainability at the core of the design, despite site restrictions which encouraged creative solutions to meet performance goals. Natural materials and finishes feature extensively to balance and harmonise with the technical and mineral elements required by contemporary standards for a completely modern and integrated sustainable design outcome.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Extensive computer modelling was used to confirm principles and develop the passive solar design, resulting in an 8 star certification. This modelling highlighted the limitations imposed by a 3 storey northern neighbour on passive solar potential, and led to a C-Bus controlled active design, featuring operable shading, ventilation, day-lighting and heating/cooling elements regulated by numerous internal and external temperature, rain, light and wind sensors.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">A holistic approach integrated elements such as external shading, operable roof, thermal mass/structural walls, exposed concrete floor, natural materials and shade planting into the overall design concept resulting in many items performing multiple tasks to further reduce total material consumption while reinforcing design principles.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Rainwater storage, onsite stormwater detention and near complete site permeability greatly reduced the properties impact on the natural hydrological cycle while supplying the house with much of its water needs. Self sufficiency is enhanced with an inbuilt capacity for grid connected solar PV array and a solar water heating system for domestic water supply and hydronic floor heating.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">The end result showcases innovative uses of materials, products and technologies to meet an ambitious design brief and provide an exemplary sustainable residential dwelling, built using a philosophy of passive and active design theory which borrows heavily from both traditional and contemporary technological principles, expanding the potential of existing sites and the future of sustainability in residential architecture.”</span></div></blockquote><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Photos by: <a href="http://www.nickbowers.com/" target="_blank">Nick Bowers</a></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This house applies kinds of sustainable features both active and passive technologies that implemented in both interior and exterior.. Energy needs surely become a hot issue in this century and environmentally friend approach tries to answer the concerns about viability. Sustainability and paying the intention of environment are considered able to save children and next descent future. In this case lately, home architecture aspect also takes a part to support long term life thus enrich and effect advancement treasure of architecture.</div><h2><span style="font-size: small;"><b><a name="more"></a>Net Zero Energy Modern House by <a href="http://www.klopfarchitecture.com/">Klopf Architecture</a></b></span>:</h2><div style="text-align: justify;"><blockquote class="tr_bq"><h3><span style="font-size: small;">“Design Objectives: Sustainability, privacy, respectful, Eichler-inspired</span></h3>The owners de-constructed their existing house when they realized that any single-story design meeting their needs would completely eliminate their back yard. They directed us to design them a new two-level home that could score as high as reasonable in the Build It Green “GreenPoint Rated” system, would be a contemporary interpretation of the Eichler style, and would also make their neighbors happy. They wanted to maintain their privacy, but also directed us to provide an open, light-filled design.<br /><h3><span style="font-size: small;">Solution: Directed openness, low profile, net-zero energy</span></h3>The owners both work from home, and wanted this to be their “final” residence, so we needed a larger-than-normal home to suit their lifestyle needs. Instead of adding a second story on top (which would’ve annoyed the neighbors) they opted for a partially-submerged lower level, which we designed to seem as little like a basement as possible (with a pulled-back floor plate, a light-filled “atrium” and a lower level light well).<br />To preserve privacy, bring in light while minimizing unwanted solar heat gain, and provide connection to nature, we oriented a large window wall north to the back yard, sloping the ceiling of the great room up to increase the light and connection to nature in that space. The sloping roof also provides a surface suitable for mounting the 13.4 kW PV system. Other building faces have smaller, punched windows that maximize privacy.<br />The owners were very concerned about the environment, specifically about energy and resource efficiency. They directed us to use materials that would last as long as possible while avoiding “food for termites” and designing a high-performance sustainable home. So in conjunction with our Mechanical Engineer we designed a net-zero energy home featuring insulated concrete forms (ICFs), structural insulated panels (SIPs), high-performance windows, cementitious siding, and an 13.4 kW solar Photovoltaic (PV) system sized to cover all the energy use in the house. No natural gas will be used in the home, with the possible exception of a backyard BBQ.”</blockquote></div><div class="MsoNormal">Photos by: <a href="http://marikoreed.com/" target="_blank">Mariko Reed</a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
