SALONGEN 35
In April 2009 Kjellgren Kaminsky won an open competition for passive houses with the builder Höllviksnäs Förvaltnings AB. The competition was organized by the city of Malmö for the last vacant site in the Bo01 housing exhibition area, in the western harbor. Now the houses are to be built.
GREEN LIVING
In addition to being passive houses the buildings will also have a number of further measures for ecological sustainability:
1. All homes will be equipped with solar panels.
2. All homes have exterior venetian blinds. This will allow winter sun to enter and the building while the summer sun is reduced.
3. Flower boxes, lawns, green walls and green roofs make the area into a green oasis.
4. Environmentally friendly building materials will be widely used; for instance all wood is FSC certified.
5. All appliances are A rated for minimum energy consumption.
6. All taps are designed for minimal water consumption.
7. Inhabitants are offered green electricity.
PLACE FOR ALL
Along the west side of the plot a micro park with plants and benches creates a varied street space for meetings between residents and visitors.
EXTERIOR
In order to give each house its own character they each have different cladding materials; plaster, fiber cement boards and wood. Aluzink is used for the roof.
Architecturally the houses are linked by giving them a similar detailing, which also gives the buildings their human scale and unique expression. There will be flower boxes of white perforated metal in selected windows, for instance in bedrooms, living rooms and kitchens. All windows and doors will have a thin frame made out of different materials for each house.
INTERIOR
A material palette where rustic, earthy materials are contrasted with minimalism. Recycled materials keep prices lower and are environmentally friendly, furthermore, a beautiful patina is included from start. Entrance, laundry and kitchen´s floors are made of recycled terracotta. In the living room and in the dining room the floor are made of a rustic resistant woodcubes of whitewashed pine. The staircase between the floors is in brushed pine. In order to get more light in the apartments and give surprising views of the surroundings, the splayed parts of some windows have mirrors.
