Green Building

This is something I am interested. I will put some links in here first, then I might be able to do something more.

Def. in wiki: Green building

Rocky Mountain Institute: Rocky Mountain Institute® (RMI) is an independent, entrepreneurial, nonprofit think-and-do tank™. Their mission is to drive the efficient and restorative use of resources.

綠建築 中繼屋

綠建築 中繼屋
(1) 【聯合晚報╱記者羅紹平/台東縣報導】2009.08.20

台東縣安置災民動作快,不僅覓得用地,也確定採用別墅外觀具節能減碳、環保功能的「中繼屋」安置災民,並委由台灣世界展望會為災民建造新家。

世展會東區辦公室組長蔡恆偉說,中繼屋每戶為2層樓別墅型外觀,總樓地板面積為31.4坪,室內有4房2廳1衛1廚,每戶造價50萬元,免費提供災民居住,採「以工代賑」由災民協力建造,災民不必具建築、水電技能,只要會用扳手鎖螺絲,就能自己動手打造自己的新家,災民蓋好新家還可獲5萬元月薪,若政府經費有困難,工資由世展會對外募款支應。

(2) 新竹縣五峰鄉天湖部落遷建工程-居住建築獎入圍

入圍理由:與震災區住宅重建略有不同,本案爲因1996之颱風雨量引發地層滑動而爲36戶原住民部落所執行之遷村案,謝英俊仍一本其爲弱勢團體爭取居住權之主張及熱誠,以協力造屋之方式完成居民苦等十年始獲完成之住屋,爲建築師參與社會重建立下典範。

設計:謝英俊建築師事務所/第三建築工作室
總樓地板面積:3708平方米
建築形式:二層連棟36戶
構造:鋼構
設計施工:2005年8月-2006年6月

...2005年8月,在臺灣世界展望會捐助和政府每戶一些補貼的情況下,湊得每戶95萬台幣(工程費90萬,設計監造費5萬),進行36戶建築集體興建,並於2006年4月完工。每戶樓地板面積103平方公尺,又在偏遠山區,必須在當地建屋行情價百分之六十的工程預算內完成,並且團隊秉持自參與921地震重建以來,所堅持的綠建築、協力造屋、小區自主營建、居民參與的永續建築理念下執行。

【綠設計】組合屋之外的選擇--綠能貨櫃屋 (from ECO御宅綠活情報,I like this website)
而在組合屋之外,究竟還有沒有其他的選擇,可以提供受災或陷於經濟困境的民眾們,一個安全舒適的替代方案?泰國的一家建築研究公司Site-Specific與Buatalah工作室,合1147;設計出極具質感,且符合環保綠能原則的貨櫃居住空間,或許可以提供台灣在災後重建上一些新的想法與可能。

這個環保綠能的貨櫃屋,運用了綠建築中最重要的4R的原則;包括Reduce減少使用、Reuse重覆使用、Recycle循環使用以及Renewable再生能源等四個要素。

事實上,貨櫃屋經常是許多設計師、建築師、藝術家...等,進行環保與再利用設計的重要素材。而在許多國家,貨櫃屋便宜,快速建造等優點,更是許多經濟弱勢者所賴以遮風避雨的重要工具之一。

而傳統的貨櫃屋常有過熱或過冷的缺點,只要透過新的環保綠能技術與綠建築設計,就有機會可以打造一個舒適又節能的綠能貨櫃屋。
