Zero Energy Design
A project to retrofit housing in the city of Delft
In this design an energetically poor performing residential building block from the 60's was transformed into a multifunctional building. The new building includes dwellings and new functions, with a zero energy performance. The emphasis of this project lies on a fully integrated climate concept that will be validated and quantified on its energy performance. Within one year, the building needs to compensate for the energy used during its creation. It also needs to produce enough energy to reimburse the user-related energy and the material related energy/carbon.
