Marilunden is the project of 10 single row-houses located at Godeset south of Stavanger. The ambitions of the project are particularly on low energy use and architectural quality. The aim is to reach passive house standard. At least five of the ten dwellings will be completed by the end of 2008.
Developer: Base Property
Architect: Sivilarkitekt Wilhelm Eder,
Stavanger/Noncon:form, Austria/Schønherr Landscape, Stavanger
Project type: Residential area
Within the planned area are two rows of houses consisting of five single units joined together in the basement. The houses are developed with flexible solutions and planned for different needs and life situations. The construction consists in a large degree mainly of prefabricated elements, and all houses are planned as low energy houses focusing on sustainable solutions. It is desirable to keep the residential area as green and lavish at it is today, also after the construction is completed.
Energy
The houses have a solid energetic concept and are planned as compact, insulated buildings that will give relatively little outdoor area in comparison to the floor area. The energetic use is planned for low energy housing with a heat-loss coefficient less than 45 W/K per m2 and a balanced sourced energy less than 75 kW/h/m2 per year.
Constructions and use of materials
There will be two separate row-houses within the planned residential area each consisting of five units. The two row-houses are joined together in the basement floor. There will be a view towards west from the floors in between each residential unit. This brings the dwellings closer to the landscape and makes a near relation between the outside world and the life inside of the house.
The houses are planned as site-adapted sustainable buildings reseblent to the criteria of Norwegian Wood. The basements will be of massive concrete. The remaining parts of the building will be made of prefabricated wooden elements at
a regional factory (Trebyggeriet). The concept gives a rational constructional process with a large degree of prefabrication.
Universal Design
There will
be guaranteed accessabillity for all users both within the residential
area and inside of the dwellings. A pedestrian path with a width of
1,20m is located behind the houses so
that all wheel chair users can drive their car all the way into the
turnaround and then follow the path into their house. All users have
access to the main floor directly from the access road.
