Conceptual Architectural Typology
Housing
The QB architectural project is oriented to a housing model that meets the philosophy of Quercus, that is harmonizing with nature through the use of green technologies in order to utilize natural resources from the area and ensure minimum impact to the ecosystem. This will require using materials offered by the region and blend in with the landscape.
Rammed earth walls-, wood, palm tree leaves and even some locally sourced recycled materials are highly recommended.
Eco techniques suggested for housing includes: solar panels, grey water recycling plant, solar heaters, eco block walls and the use of cross ventilation systems.
