Abstract

This booklet presents the multidisciplinary development of a sustainable housing complex, situated on the harbourfront of Midsund, on the west coast of Norway. The project originated in collaboration with a local Norwegian construction firm, Røberg Bygg A/S, seeking to build on a newly planned building site. The project has aimed to conceive an architectural, sustainable and feasible project, focused on enhanced life quality, through the utilization of natural resources on the site. These resources have been a design catalyst for forming a harmonious project, with relation to the surrounding context. Furthermore, analysis of energy consumption and indoor environmental qualities has been conducted, through several design iterations and verification of the final design. These analyses are made in BE18 and Bsim.
