Contemporary Natural House design by Simon Winstanley Architects
This contemporary natural house is design by Simon Winstanley Architects. The house is designed to have energy efficiency for the day activity. This contemporary natural house is located in the natural area that makes this house will feel so comfortable. This house is proposed to achieve a “zero carbon” house by using very high levels of insulation, minimizing air infiltration, heating using a ground source heat pump with solar hot water heating panels in the roof and generating electricity using a wind turbine. The design uses lightweight but highly insulated steel and timber frame construction, clad in cedar weatherboarding allowed to weather to a natural silver gray color. The roof uses pre-weathered gray standing seam zinc. Windows and external doors are to be high performance timber, painted gray. via
