Building with Nature perspectives

cross-disciplinary BwN approaches in coastal regions

2021 || Paperback || Janneke van Bergen e.a. || TU Delft Open

This publication offers an overview of the latest cross-disciplinary developments in the field of Building with Nature (BwN) for the protection of coastal regions. The key philosophy of BwN is the employment of natural processes to serve societal goals, such as flood safety. The starting point is a systems-based approach, making interventions that employ the shaping forces of the natural system to perform measures by self-regulation. Initial pilots of this innovative approach originate from c...

Space Layout and Energy ­Performance

Parametric optimisation of space layout for the energy ­performance of office buildings

2021 || Paperback || Tiantian Du || TU Delft Open

Architectural design greatly influences building energy performance (BEP), and energy-efficient design is therefore often studied. Architectural space layout also can affect BEP. However, only a few of the numerous studies on energy-efficient design considered the effect of space layout. Within these studies, the isolated effect of space layout on the BEP has hardly have been analysed systematically.

The framework of Performative Computational Architecture (PCA) had been proven to be effectiv...

Transformation in Composition

Ecdysis Of Landscape Architecture Through The Brownfield Park Project 1975-2015

2018 || Paperback || René van der Velde || TU Delft Open

This study enlarges on the notion of composition in landscape architecture, building on the ‘Delft Method’, which elaborates composition as a methodological framework for landscape design. At the same time it takes a critical stance in respect to this method in response to recent developments in landscape architecture such as the site-specicity and process discourses.

The notion of composition is examined from a historical, theoretical and lexical perspective, before turning to an examina...

Re-use of Building Products in the Netherlands

The development of a metabolism based assessment approach

|| Paperback || Loriane Icibaci || TU Delft Open

Over the years, the consumption of materials for construction exceeded more than half of the total materials consumed in the Netherlands, and construction waste exceeded the volume of solid waste produced by households. Since the introduction of the "Ladder van Lansink" (in the 1970’s) and the further development of the European Waste Framework Directives followed by the Circular Economy concept, waste prevention has been considered a priority measure. Whereas the goals to improve waste man...

Home ­Occupant Archetypes

Profiling householders’ comfort- and energy-related behaviours with mixed-methods

2019 || Paperback || Marco A. Ortiz || TU Delft Open

This research aimed at understanding how occupants use energy in their homes to make themselves feel more comfortable. This was done to propose customized environmental characteristics that could improve the occupants’ comfort while reducing energy consumption. To conceptualize such bespoke environmental features, occupant archetypes were produced based on the occupants’ intentions and motivations behind comfort behaviours.

A mixed-methods human-centered design approach was developed for ...

Visibility, ­democratic public space and socially inclusive cities

2020 || Paperback || Ceren Sezer || TU Delft Open

This research introduces the concept of visibility as a useful tool to assess the democratic features of public spaces. It understands democratic public spaces as open spaces, which are accessible to all and allow different cultural expressions for individuals and groups. The concept of visibility refers to the visual perception of the observable features of distinctive urban groups in public space, which give evidence of how these groups engage with, shape, and construct public space. The re...

Anchoring the design process

A framework to make the designerly way of thinking explicit in architectural design education

2020 || Paperback || Elise van Dooren || TU Delft Open

This thesis proposes a framework to address the design process in design education. Building upon the assumption that teachers, being professional designers, do not discuss the design process in the architectural design studio and do not have a vocabulary to do so, five generic elements or anchor points are defined which represent the basic design skills. The validity of the framework and the assumption is tested respectively in interviews with a variety of designers and in observations of di...

Housing Refurbishment for Energy Efficiency and Comfort

Toward sustainable housing in Vietnam

2021 || Paperback || Phan Anh Nguyen || TU Delft Open

The housing stock in Vietnam has boomed in the last few decades, especially in urbanised areas. However, the increasing number of housing units did not go along with housing quality, a healthy living environment or a sustainable building stock. Recent legislation only applies to public buildings but not the private housing sector, which accounts for the majority of the building stock. Therefore, this research aimed to contribute to a more sustainable building stock in Vietnam by improving the...
