Net ZEB design opportunities and challenges
In this chapter, Net ZEB design is discussed from an architectural perspective. This can be characterized as bringing some issues traditionally the concern of Building Engineers (predominately energy‐based) into the building design domain which has been traditionally dominated by an Architectural view point. Although the word design may have been used previously in the context of technical issues related to the energy design of a Net ZEB, in this chapter, the word design refers to the architecture field (architecture: the art or practice of designing and building structures and especially habitable ones). This includes possible extensions of discussions to the landscape scale (landscape design). Some technical concepts already discussed in this book will be re‐proposed, focusing on spatial and formal aspects related to Net ZEB design.
