Explore the concept of"living buildings“

(complete self-sustaining), andtheir relationship to the

quality of life.



European architecture and worldexperience shows how architects

have decoded the concept ofsustainability in architecture

BEDZED

Beddington Zero Energy Development is the UK’s largest mixed use sustainablecommunity. It was designed to create a thriving community in which ordinarypeople could enjoy a high quality of life, while living within their fair share of the

Earth’s resources.

We are interested in a building in this newvision in: AMELORATION & MITIGATION



- Energy : operational energy and carbondioxide (CO2)- Management : management policy,commissioning, site management andprocurement- Health and Wellbeing : indoor and externalissues (noise, light, air quality etc)- Transport : transport-related CO2 andlocationrelated factors- Water : consumption and efficiency insideand out- Materials : embodied impacts of buildingmaterials, including lifecycle impacts likeembodied carbon dioxide- Waste : construction resource efficiency andoperational waste management and minimisation- Land Use : type of site and building footprint- Pollution : external air and water pollution- Ecology : ecological value, conservation andenhancement of the site



Energy Performance of Buildings Directive bring at least threemajor points of support for development

1. A first strength is waiving 1000mp threshold for mandatoryenergy performance improvements in existing buildings,which means that the entry into force of the new directive, allthe buildings in major renovations, regardless of size willhave to improve their energy performance .

2. Another important element of the Directive is the introductionof minimum energy performance requirements for minorrenovations (including windows, doors, roofs).

3. The third strength is the requirement that all new buildingshave a net energy consumption close to zero, sinceDecember 2020, new public buildings will comply with thisstandard since 2018.



better management, and improvement of theexisting building stock

reduce the running costs and improve theenvironmental performance of existingbuildings

- reduce operational costs- enhance the value and marketability of

property assets- give a transparent platform for negotiatingbuilding improvements with landlordsand owners- provide a route to compliance withenvironmental legislation and standards,

- give greater engagement with staff inimplementing sustainable business practices- provide opportunities to improve staffsatisfaction with the working environment withthe potential for significant improvements inproductivity



Energy efficiency of new buildings require more funding

Buildings represent 40% of total EU energy consumption,reducing energy consumption and use renewable energy inthe building sector is an important component of measuresto reduce EU energy dependence and greenhouse gas

emissions greenhouse.

Create a European Fund for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, toassure the public and private capital raising for projects in the field during 2010-2020, will represent a big step forward.

European citizens would not be so compelled to bear alone the costs ofbuilding energy modernization. "



The aims of criteria are:

– limit energy and water consumption;

– limit waste production and enhance recycling;

– favour the use of materials with high environmental performances;

– favour the use of renewable resources and of substances which are lesshazardous to the environment,

– favour indoor well-being;

– promote information and education on the correct management of thebuilding.

The total number of points or credits gained in each section ismultiplied by an environmental weighting factor which takes intoaccount the relative importance of each section.

Section scores are then added together to produce a singleoverall score.

Once the overall score for the building is known this is translatedinto a rating on a scale of:

BRE Global (UK)- Pass - Good - Very Good- Excellent - Outstanding

A star rating from 1 to 5 stars is also provided

Or LEAF (GERMANY): bronze, silver, gold, platinumetc.



Assessments are carried out by independent Assessors who aretrained and licensed an institution with attributes in the field.

The Assessor produces a report outlining the development’sperformance in each of the sections and its overall score.

Upon completion of the assessment, the client is presented with acertificate confirming the institution rating. The earlier an Assessor isinvolved in the design process, the easier it is to gain a high rating inthe most cost-effective way.



General requirementsIn order to apply for the Ecolabel the applicant needs to comply withEuropean, national and local legal requirements. In particular, the buildingshall be:1. built legally and respect all relevant laws or regulations of the locality inwhich it is built, especially those related to landscape and biodiversityconservation;2. in compliance with European, national and local laws and regulations

regarding energy conservation, water sources, water treatment anddisposal, construction products and materials, waste collection and disposal,maintenance and servicing of equipment, safety and health dispositions;



BedZED was initiated by BioRegional and BDa ZEDfactory, anddeveloped by the Peabody Trust. It was completed and occupied in 2002.

The community comprises 50% housing for sale, 25% key worker sharedownership and 25% social housing for rent.



People move to BedZED with typical lifestyles , and over the yearschange their behaviour significantly. The holistic design works onthree levels:

1.the design solves problems such as heating and water usage;

2. the design and services offered help people make sustainablechoices such as walking rather than driving; and

3. the community have created their own facilities and groups toimprove quality of life and reduce their environmental impact.

Thank you for your attention!
