Residential complex comprising 11 Passive House single-family homes. The development consists of two typologies of houses, with 4 or 5 bedrooms each, featuring a private garden and various surface areas. Living in a passive house means living in a home with nearly zero energy consumption, resulting in savings of up to 75% in heating and cooling needs compared to a conventional home. This low energy cost benefits both the homeowner and the planet, providing a high level of comfort and interior well-being. Its design is based on 5 basic principles: excellent thermal insulation, high-performance windows, absence of thermal bridges, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, and airtightness. Additionally, bioclimatic design and solar protection are incorporated. Notable features include:
-
High-performance PVC carpentry with low emissivity, thermal break, and solar control, providing increased resistance to heat transmission. Solar protection is crucial for controlling solar gains. Thus, all windows and French doors will be equipped with motorized PVC thermal blinds. External roll-up Alicante blinds maintain the Mediterranean aesthetic while offering additional visual protection, light opacity, and water protection. The home's air conditioning (cooling/heating) will be ducted through false ceilings with supply grilles, with a proposed mechanical ventilation system using an enthalpic heat recovery unit to ensure continuous double-flow ventilation. Combined with the home's good airtightness, this can reduce energy consumption by up to 30%.
-
Domestic hot water production is achieved through a high-efficiency inverter aerothermal heat pump. Finishes include: - Interior carpentry featuring solid lacquered white doors and built-in wardrobes with lacquered white doors. The interior walls of the homes will be painted with smooth white plastic paint, except for bathrooms, which will be tiled with 60x60 format ceramic tiles or similar.
-
The interior flooring will be synthetic laminate AC4 parquet with lacquered white skirting boards. Bathrooms and kitchen areas will be tiled with ceramic flooring. Exterior terraces will have non-slip ceramic flooring. The interior staircase, constructed with the same synthetic parquet flooring, will have mechanically jointed steps and iron railings with vertical supports, finished in anthracite gray textured.
Common areas: Outdoor communal swimming pool with garden area and solarium.
Access is individual from the private terrace of each home. The pool will feature a saline chlorination system and low-consumption lighting. The lobby area, comprising communal stairs and elevator, directly connects the communal garden with the indoor garage located in the basement of the building with communal access. The garage door will be motorized with remote control. Type A homes have a private garage with two parking spaces per home, while Type B homes have one or two parking spaces in the communal area plus a storage room, as per plans. In summary, living in a nearly zero-energy home offers high interior comfort along with significant economic advantages, all synonymous with well-being for the entire family.
