Description

I intended for this field research station to really harmonize with the landscape, including elements such as natural materials and an angled design so each window bank would frame a slightly different view. The south-facing façade features lots of windows for heat gain in the winter, when the sun is low, while the three-foot overhang blocks the high sun in the warmer seasons. The roof is angled so that photovoltaic panels placed on it can be south-facing. The unfinished concrete slab acts as a thermal mass and can store excess heat. Clerestory windows on the northern side of the building can be opened for natural ventilation, and the high window in the bathroom provides natural light while still maintaining privacy.
