On the day of the date, we will analyze a very peculiar design both in Façade and in plans, in the case of a remodeled house which changed drastically when the old design of the front part was perpetuated and added a completely new twist with the culmination and creation of a second floor, thus drastically renewing the style but preserving the harmony of this hybrid housing.

In case you do not have knowledge, we tell you that the hybrid constructions convert the sun into alternating current to run all the utilities of the house. When we encounter cloudy or snowy days, a generator that runs on bio-fuel ensures continuous power supply.

This class of housing is intended to be completely independent of the local electrical network. By manipulating its surface for maximum solar exposure and the use of a group of ultra-fine batteries implemented at the base of the slabs.

In the front part of the plot we see how the original facade, which is one level. However, if we go a little deeper into the terrain, we can see how the construction rises in the middle of the house, giving shape to the second level, located as we already mentioned, in the interior part of the land.

Lighting

Sometimes, the simple fact of altering the lighting of the facade can give it a totally different look. In modern houses this resource is widely used to illuminate the walls and floors. In these cases you will have to decide for white light as the low consumption, light bulbs of warm light, or led lights of other colors (there are many colors available).

But if your home only has an outdoor luminaire and you do not need to add more than that, consider renovating the lampholders and replacing them with wall lanterns. This will give a special touch to your home.

Another option is to add simple road lights with solar charge, they would be an ideal complement for your facade and are easy to get and place.

In order to reach a «Green construction», the project architect proposed the use of a hot water heat pump, with which in this way, it could provide both hot water and heating floor or underfloor heating.

Beyond the fact that a small construction would require less materials, and therefore the environmental impact would be less, other factors such as carbon footprint, durability, landscape impact, materials or functionality will also influence it. bioclimatic design. We are starting with the copies so you can see what we mean ...

The approach that a sustainable construction, it must be conformed by the famous rule of the three erres, being able to "reduce", "reuse" and "recycle" each of the things used for such construction. For this, it is always good to have the advice of professionals specialized in this field, not only to architects, but also to those who regularly resort to sustainable projects.

Another point to keep in mind is the choice of land in which we want to build our home, and the Construction materials so that it is durable. Based on that, below we will show you some unique samples, which we hope you can help them by broadening their views regarding building and sustainability.

For the eco materials fulfill their function within the construction and this is sustainable, we must make all the pieces of the puzzle fit together: performance of green energies, taking advantage of the weather conditions that we find ourselves, isolation, passive systems, etc ... only to avoid wasting money in the future to solve problems or unforeseen events, but also to achieve the main objective, a sustainable construction.

On the other hand, the well-being and comfort of the people who live in this construction is also very important, which does not have to be incompatible with the sustainability of housing or with any other type of construction.

Although the costs of the materials that can be implemented in the building may be higher, it is also true that long-term energy savings, they represent a saving that sincerely is worth the investment. Being able to be installed renewable energy systems to allow us to supply and a series of practices that manage to reduce energy losses, over time the architectural and energy sustainability, result in a significant overall savings if you give up a good quality of life.
