Green” solutions both in the formal configuration of the buildings and in the rational design of their installations.
Cross-ventilated dwellings with a building depth of around 12 m. in order to optimise natural lighting.
The fifth façade, resolved by means of a landscaped roof, notably improving the thermal inertia of the roof slab, as well as the permeability index of the surroundings.
Grouped wet areas (kitchens, laundry rooms, bathrooms and toilets) in order to rationalise the layout of the installations.
Solar energy collection through solar panels located on the roof of the building for the production of domestic hot water (DHW).
