Article source: architectures The last project of the architecture office – “architectures” – by the architect A.Giannakakis, is a residence with bioclimatic elements and very low energy consumption in the town of Komotini, Greece. The site is approximately 735sq.m and is located on the suburbs of the city. It’s situated in the Southeast and shares a boarder with other private properties in the North and West. The area experiences powerful winds coming from the North, with high humidity and low temperatures in the winter, and high temperatures in summer. The district has low buildings with neighborhood character.  SOUTH VIEW 2, Image Courtesy © architectures

It’s located almost in the centre of the site with free space around the residence. Being raised slightly allows people to use the semi-basement as a car park, gym and to host others with space for a small gust room. The cour anglaise permits plenty and direct sunlight in the space of the basement, with natural ventilation.

Despite the hoist, the design and configuration of the forecourt allows the building direct contact with the ground. A prerequisite of the owners was to have an extroverted residency with complete privacy, while a prerequisite of the architect was to have a building with a low carbon and energy consumption.

Moveable Louvre system in East, green roof and elevated skylights are a few elements that have been used to secure the building from the cold, but also allow the building to have a natural cooling in the summer months.
