" CREAR A TRAVÉS DE LO CREADO: ADAPTACIÓN " Viviendas Bioclimáticas (original) (raw)

This document initiated through a problem-oriented approach to mass housing construction quality has deteriorated, creating masses to occupy and no place to live. It is divided into a series of chapters where some architectural courses related to the environment are taken up and a residential project done in Havana, Cuba, in Batey exposed sector. Initially the overall outcome of the project, its scope, and the end result is presented. A tour around the process where the explanation thereof will be divided, for greater understanding then raises. Based on the analysis as a fundamental argument of the investigation, current characteristics of the models of housing and public space that accompanies them are evident, they also expressed the found environmental characteristics, which for the Cuban case, are determining relevant when designing. After this phase, it presents a series of photographs that create precise housing in Cuba today where design parameters are identified which are subsequently basis for the new design idea. This new design is expressed through floor plans, diagrams and photographs, and an occupational model, that while intended to preserve some Cuban characteristics, arises also sought to publicize other forms of design and performance that respect the environment and adapt to place for a living organism, being the central idea of intervention. This residential response, become a complement, emphasizes new materials, new systems and alternatives to improve what I found, finally, the project promotes a clear and obvious sustainability processes, which are expressed by means of simulation programs. Environmental considerations, become added value of the project, resulting in a sustainable project.
