Owner approach of sustainability

Customers wanted a sober house in simple shapes and finishes, but beautiful and with high performance and environmental quality. They wanted a home with an energy consumption of zero or almost zero, with Passivhaus standard, and built with bioconstruction and local production materials as much as possible, and with a protection system of electromagnetic radiation. The lifestyle of the future occupants and the world they would want to leave their children have been the main source of inspiration for the project.

Architectural description

It is a house of rectangular plant in a triangular site, with main facade to the south onto the garden and back to the north facade, connected to the access road. The plant is organized into four pillars and structural bays of wooden beams perpendicular to the main façade, giving the pace of housing space set. Parallel to the main facade, the housing is organized into two spaces: the south, which is wider and integrates the main areas of housing, and the north, which is narrower and organizes access and core housing services. On the ground floor one finds the main units of the housing and is planned so that every day life takes place only in that plant. All openings to south and east connect with the outside of the house, providing permeability between inside and outside. The large porch to the south acts as an intermediate space between them. The ground floor has a large central work space, a bathroom and two bedrooms at the ends. The 3 main spaces are connected by a large deck to south terrace. Volumetrically, housing is conceived as a single volume and a single inclined cover of a single plane. The first flat terrace is integrated in this volume and the ground floor is proposed as an independent structure to the south added to the volume. In short, a house that wants to be consistent with itself and with its inhabitants: sober in simple shapes and finishes, but built with maximum energy and environmental rigor.

Solar system with vacuum tube collectors CPC

Product category : Climatización / Calefacción, agua caliente

CPC Inox vacuum tube sensors meet all energy needs. For example: a solar installation with CPC Inox collector covers about 70-80% of the annual demand of 3/4 people for the heating of sanitary water. CPC Inox pickups achieve higher performance than absorber pickups, especially during colder months and in intermediate stations. Each Paradigma manifold can be integrated with a heater, a solar station and a Paradigma regulation to make the most of the advantages of a complete system.

With the new Aqua solar system, Paradigma offers for the first time the possibility of using the existing hot water accumulator as a solar accumulator, without the additional cost due to the replacement of the accumulator. The new solar system Aqua uses the water of the installation instead of antifreeze liquid, since the water is a better heat carrier: available at all times, easy to use and, in addition, this solar installation consumes less electrical energy than traditional solar installations.

Well accepted by actors.
