Project 3: Design Principles

The following is a list of design principles that our group came up with and will follow for project 3.

• Polished concrete floors - where applicable (thermal mass)
• Rammed Earth? (possible use on some walls - thermal mass)
• Timber structure - recycled, box beams? (interior)
• Concrete columns - outdoor feature
• Sliding door feature - where applicable (project 1)
• Earthy colours
• Bricks? (recycled of course!)
• Vast expanses of glass (preferably north facing)
• Built-in furniture - recycled timber (tie in with sliding doors)

Note: Principles are subject to change!
