In the current research, a new project about a house called BioHouse
is created.
This house is studied considering the natural resources like sun, wind etc.
In particular a solar panel, photovoltaic systems and a system of wind tower
are used. A ventilation chimney exploiting the wind power can be used for air
conditioning “to save money”.
In this project, the simulation is carried out for southern climate.
Two floors, with pool, constitute this house, besides there are
several rooms and a wind tower.
Principal Pointson which project is founded are the followings:
ENVIRONMENT:
In phase of planning we do a "screening" to individualize Hartmann's grid
and zones with problems of electromagnetic character.
ELECTRIC INSTALLATION:
The electric installation has been projected to avoid electric fields in
proximity of beds (no electric cable passes behind beds) and during the
night a switch detaches the current in the night zone; on a wall of a
bathroom adjacent to a bedroom shielded cables have been used.
HEATING SYSTEM:
The heating system is put under the floor (one of the most important themes
in bioarchitecture), it offers characteristics of fundamental importance:-
heat is shared in a uniform way on all the surface, giving the house a total
comfort impossible to get otherwise;
- costs of management are lower because boiler works with very lower
temperatures (30-40°C in comparison with 60°C or
more of radiators' heating) saving money up to 30% for year!
- dust doesn't circulate (nor bacteria!) and there's not enough dampness to make
acari proliferate;
- and we don't have ugly radiators all around our house (even if modern design
tries to refine them, they are never beautiful and they steal vital
space to the walls).
NIGHT SPACE:
Beds are oriented with their head looking north to follow the earth magnetic
flux and they are positioned to avoid Hartmann's nodes.
DAY SPACE:
Day space is projected as an "opening space", with a panel wall that
can rotate to double the living room.
MATERIALS:
only materials according to bioarchitecture concepts have been used:
natural hydraulic lime for plasters, lime dye for ceilings, natural
oil dye for walls, water treatments for parquet, etc.
