#9 Edition Autumn 2011 Publisher responsible: Birgit Huybrechs Production: RSM Co-Publishers More than luxury J ust as there is a difference between objective and subjective temperature, there is also a difference between objective comfort levels and what could be called a feeling of comfort. It’s possible for a perfectly insulated and ventilated building simply not to feel very comfortable. True comfort is found in the combination of well-being and lavishness. Physical comfort is of course an indispensable part of this. If someone is cold or sitting in a draught, or lacking fresh air, he...

A house as a tree varna (BG) — One of the most remarkable projects by Boris Ignatov, a Bulgarian architect working out of New York and Varna, is his tree-like Conservatory House. This large residential complex façade was made with Reynaers systems CW 50-HI, CW 50-RA and CS 77. The project was nominated by World Architecture News for House of the Year 2010. This unique house has six geothermal probes that create a closed loop ground heat exchange system, which delivers clean heating and cooling. The glazed roof is reversed, which allows natural light to enter and the collection of rain water...

Peter Baracchi 7 Three layers UZNACH (CH) — Juan González and Ruben Daluz, each with their own architectural office, have worked together to create this house in Uznach, in the canton of St. Gallen in Switzerland. They were originally commissioned to merely renovate the two-story house which was already standing there, but along the way the plan arose to create a three-story new building. And once that decision had been reached, the designers were given free rein. The building consists of three staggered boxes, which are completely opaque on the side facing the public road and completely...

FOCUS Progress in comfort 8 Although few architects would say that providing comfort is the primary goal of their work, that is what architecture is about. Many people can, fortunately, see a building as more than just a safe roof over their heads, and understand the essence of architecture, offering a comfortable shelter against the outside world. The point is still to keep the outside world – wind, water, heat and cold – outside. But more so than ever before, that idea is unequivocally combined with a desire for additional comfort.

FOCUS Change The speed with which architecture changes can be seen in more than just the stylistic developments which quickly follow one after the other. If you look at the architecture of the 1960s or 1980s it is easy to see a world of difference from today. The fast pace of change can also be seen in the massive developments in terms of the comfort level of buildings. Here as well, the space of a century brings countless changes, and often enormous innovations will take place over a decade. How long ago was it the norm to have single glazed windows? It took an oil crisis and an increase...

FOCUS the Reynaers systems already greatly reduce the noise level, and details such as extra seals and hidden hinges improve the acoustic performance even further. The less sound penetrates from outside, the more important the indoor sound becomes. In its own field of façade systems, Reynaers investigates and develops solutions to reduce contact noise which may occur via the façade between floors or between adjacent rooms. Luxury Energy performance is a driving force behind comfortable solutions. But there is also a growing need for comfort which is unrelated to energy-efficiency. Despite...

I n the Austrian municipality of Breitenwang, in North Tyrol, a new community centre was inaugurated in July 2010. The client was a bank, and the municipality will be renting the building for the foreseeable future, in order to unite all relevant local institutions under one roof. The residents will benefit the most from this arrangement, because they will no longer have to travel difficult roads between the town office, library, and doctor’s practices. All these institutions are now centrally located in Breitenwang in a beautiful new building which also houses apartments. 16 Against the...
