Client : David Suzuki

Career: A leading Environmental Activist, Award-winning scientist, broadcaster, author, and cofounder of David Suzuki Foundation.

Belief: “In our preoccupation with keeping the econo-my growing, we fail to ask fundamental questions like what is an economy for, how much is enough and what are the important things in our lives.”

c o n c e p tThis residence for David Suzuki is a shelter, protec-tion, and the space that provides oasis of the nature.

Approporiate zoning of this residence provides pri-vacy for his study time, as well as public sideallow him to casually invite guests.

Landscape design allows dynamic activities. It is a place to enjoy reading, grow your own vegetables, as well as arranging seating sapce according to one’s needs.

Requirements: Comply with ASHRAE Standard 55-2004, Thermal Comfort Conditions for Human Occupancy

As outlined by ASHRAE STANDARD 55-2004,the thermal comfort for human occupancy is considered to be an important part of design phase. 1. site does not have contamination source within 7.5m. 2. values of assumed for comfort parameters includes clothing, metabolic rate, as well as air velocity and humidity.3. internal heating and cooling loads meeting the system capacities and its limitation needs to be considered.4. zoning in terms of thermal comfort as discussed above and appropriate zoning will determine requirements for ASHRAE STANDARD 55-2004

1 point Achieved


Requirements: Provide a permanent monitoring system and process for corrective action to ensure performance to the desired comfort criteria as determined by EQ Credit 7.1

Considering that the building is naturally ventilated, it is critical to follow the guidelines of naturally-ventilated design features:

1. Operable windows2. Narrow Floor plates for effective cross-or single-sided ventilation 3. Highly articulated plans that expose interior zones to two or more exposure and wind pressure regimes 4. Building controls that ensure comfortable airflow under all or most climatic conditions.


Requirements: Provide thermal and ventilation controls for at least 50% of the space.

Solution: building will be provided with thermal and ventilation controls for every zones.Also manage flexible and comfortable space for occupants enabling the ability to control operable windows located near windows.
