Structural concept • Green,living roof with a waterproof membrane filled with soil and vegetaGon. • Solar panel system
Materials • The green roof has waterproof membrane. • Terra coLa, when there’s heat and sunshine, apart from the solar panels, basic clay roof is light in colour and does not retain as much heat as a darker roof. They can also keep the building cool through the shapes and composiGon. Terra coLa Gles go through a baking process in ovens, makes them harder and less porous in terms of holding lots of heat.
FuncGon • Cool naturally through soil temperature and growth of greenery. • Living plants also release oxygen in to the air, making it less toxic and harmful . • Capture and redirect solar power into electricity. • Most oRen they're molded into a half-‐barrel or "S" shape, forming interlocking arches across a roof. Space beneath the arch of each Gle allows for air and water circulaGon and runoff, which prevents heat capture and keeps the home below cooler.
