Surman Weston veils self-build Peckham House in hit-and-miss brickwork

London-based architectural studio Surman Weston has completed its first self-build project in the vibrant south-east London neighborhood of Peckham. The aptly titled “Peckham House” stands apart, its monolithic form softened by the use of hit-and-miss brickwork — the distinctive veil envelops a home that is delicately handcrafted. Jim Stephenson Surman Weston Peckham House is the first self-initiated project by Surman Weston with the studio in the role of client, architect, and contractor. For directors Tom Surman and Percy Weston, it was an opportunity to move beyond the parameters of a typical architectural project — the role of contractor, in particular, stirred a passion for craftsmanship and m... もっと見る

Spark Lodges at YDD Resort

    The project was initiated due to the popularity of summer river-trekking at Jinkeng Village, a chill-out place where people would love to find a comfortable lodge to stay overnight compared to a tent. Given the fact that the village is part of Liuyang (Hunan, China), a city world-renowned for its fireworks industry, the concept of fusing contemporary industrial materials with natural and rural surroundings began to take shape.

Nisarga

 Nisarga Art Hub is an initiative by a family of musicians to make a community residency where people can interact and congregate for art and cultural events. The site was near a paddy field, with the traditional “Kerala Roofs” being the only feature crowding the horizon around it. Even though these traditional roofs are famous for being the ideal insulators and temperature regulators, it’s a waning feature in contemporary architecture today, simply because the darkness they bring is not suited to the modern man’s comfort and aesthetics. Thus, the idea to break open the roof to accommodate skylights that stream in the light was conceived.  Syam Sreesylam Syam Sreesylam The 35° angle of the ro... もっと見る

10 homes making use of straw bale construction and insulation

かやぶき屋根、アドベレンガの結合材、断熱材、ストローベイル建築など、わらには建築材料としての長い歴史がある。 世界の炭素排出量の37パーセントを占める建設部門が、気候変動という非常事態に大きな役割を果たしていることは、ますます認識されるようになっている。再生可能で、リサイクル可能で、地域で入手可能で、しかも低コストの材料であるストローは、コンクリートやスチールといった従来の建築材料に代わる、気候変動に優しい代替材料を提供する。国連環境計画による最近の報告書(2023年)は、成長が早く再生可能なバイオマス資源である竹とわらの年間供給量が需要を上回っていることを強調している。この報告書は、ポリスチレン、ミネラルウッド、セルロースファイバー、ロックウールなどの従来型の素材と比較した場合、ストローベイル断熱材の低炭素面での利点に注目している。実際、ストローは建設セクターの脱炭素化にとって現実的な解決策となる。 ストローベイル構造では、構造材(木材との組み合わせ)や建物の断熱材(床、天井、屋根、壁)として、藁の俵や束を使用するのが一般的である。この生物由来の材料は、通常、農作物である穀物の副産物であり、耐火性(俵が密に詰まった状態)、耐久性、騒音減衰性を備えている。わらは豊富で、再生可能で、生分解性があり、天然の炭素吸収源として機能する。とはいえ、建築資材としてのわらには、湿気による損傷の管理、安定した品質のベールの入手、建築許可や保険の確保など、いくつかの問題がある。とはいえ、低炭素建築の解決策を前進させるためには、このような問題を、前進を阻む障害ではなく、克服すべき課題(例えば、自然換気は湿気と闘うことができる)として捉えることが理想的である。 これらのプロジェクトは、ストロ... もっと見る
