Abstract

During the Milan Design Week 2018, a temporary pavilion - “Delight The Light” – has been design and built - as press room for Officina Tamborrino - using their own products as construction technologies. This paper explains the evolution of this project from a temporary architecture into an NZEB open lab for university students. The introduction of innovative multilayer insulator materials characterized by high heat-reflecting properties and the tailored envelope design ensure the satisfaction of comfort both in winter and summer season and reduced drastically the time of constructions. The process, followed to reach the NZEB target, is based on performance-based design analysis. In particular the validation phase has foreseen a very detailed modelling steps on the building model through dynamic thermal simulations with finite element method to validate its thermal and hygrometric performances, coupled with daylighting and fluid dynamics simulations to consider also the users behaviour and well-being during the design stage.

Highlights

  • The increasing awareness on climate changes and the latest EPBD recast 844/2018/UE [1] are stimulating new approaches in buildings design process, renewable energies integration and their upcycle at the end-of-life through the concept of Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB) [2][3], which are becoming the main stream quality in the AEC industry

Summary

Introduction

The increasing awareness on climate changes and the latest EPBD recast 844/2018/UE [1] are stimulating new approaches in buildings design process, renewable energies integration and their upcycle at the end-of-life through the concept of Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB) [2][3], which are becoming the main stream quality in the AEC industry. The environmental impact of the used building materials arises during various stages of building lifespan: construction, operation and demolition; for those reasons we should consider the overall resource efficiency. In this context, the paper reports an attempt of designing nearly zero energy buildings redesigning a temporary pavilion named “Delight the Light”, initially conceived as press room for the event in-Habits during Milan Design week 2018, into a permanent NZEB open lab for university students at the Lecco Campus of Politecnico di Milano
