The project proposes a convincing and innovative renovation of an existing structure to increase its overall environmental, functional, and aesthetic performance. A solution is explored to increase energy efficiency by the clever combination of a green roof, green external walls, and an advanced window design.

Additional technologies that are to be commended in this work include a chimney that provides natural ventilation while barring noise from the surroundings, solar panels, water tanks that recycle grey water, as well as those measures taken to increase soil permeability.

The work is also ethically sensible, incorporating directly the input of effected stakeholders. An economically viable model is advanced in that the overall costs for refurbishment and subsequent maintenance are greatly reduced. Through careful exploration of the potential yield of sustainable construction, the project makes a positive impact on the community by offering a contextual catalyst to the neighborhood.

More than a building, the proposal instigates an environmental event that promises a perpetually transforming aesthetic in response to seasonal conditions. An important case study in ecological and architectural design is put forward and is to be commended for its proficient level of accomplishment.
