Open Studio : Design Sustainable

Sustainable Development 

        This class we discuss about sustainable development from different aspects :

        As general we talked about : social , economic , environment . each one have his / her views how to develop the sustainability and useful for the future .

        1.       Materials : renewable and local building materials , we can use timber construction and timber products , I suggest to use GRC-glass fiber reinforced cement for the wall , of cause we should consider the LCA - life cycle assessment from all the design period .

        2.       Construction waste : some countries have improve the recycling rate to 90% , in order to reduce the waste and CO2 , so from the choose of materials , we should avoid the Non-recyclable material and choose the materials that can be re-used or safely disposed . 

        3.       Thailand have large freshwater resource , but everyone still need to saving water , use natural water cycle to reduce the house temperature instead of air condition , use the rain water recycling to reducing water use . also the sustainable urban drainage theory should be used in wastewater Treatment Plant .

        4.       Solar orientation is the most significant resources in Thailand , form the technology view , I suggest to use photovoltaic curtain wall to support the power for the CO₂ neutral house , the light changed to be LED . 

        5.   The house to be build as a living demonstration , people can come to visit to learn something about Thai cultural and the visitor can build their house like this style ; the house can be use one or two rooms for youth hostel , when the host go out to visit , she also can go to that kind of room for free ; when others know it , the news will spread out as a viral marketing in the social .

       Classmates give many methods ,  there are many ways to propagate , booklet , app , social media , youlike , mobile exhibition , link to website as members and posting related work , also the house can be learning center , for visit and station and so on .

       I think there are many ways to design / material / build / use / propagation / waste / re-use to catch the aim of " GREEN" .
