CHILDREN’S ECO-VILLAGE
The design for the children’s eco-village arose from the integration of a generic and a specifi c approach to create a universal building system on the one hand and individual building types on the other hand.
The generic part consists of the design of a prototype, suitable for the tropical rainforest climate. By using the construction principle of a reciprocal roof from local bamboo, a 60 m2 column-free fl oor-plan is created which offers a large fl exibility. Rainwater is col-lected at the two lowest points of the ferrocement-roof that reduces the heat inside compared to corrugated metal sheets. Water is stored in the courtyard of the building, which provides naturally ventilat-ed spaces. This low-tech design can be featured, clustered and copied in many different ways according to the context and function.
The specfi c part is the implementation of the prototype in the context of the rural village Turbo, which results in the masterplan for the children’s eco village. A small-scale perception and a sense of safety and securi-ty for the large program and site is created by clustering the pavilions around courtyards. The openness and accessibility of the pavilions de-pend on the function and position on the plot. Sightlines and passages enhance the relation between the different functions.
With the use of only one pavilion design, an enormous variety of functions can be housed. In future, the children’s eco-village can easily be extended in cohesion with the existing pavilions by adding more pavilions.
