GPL House

Outline
Experimental housing conceived from the level of the construction of production and distribution systems. For this purpose, a wooden panel construction method and latent heat storage floor heating and cooling have been developed. At the same time, new contexts for design tools are being investigated by measuring archilogical data such as window openings and closings, temperature and humidity, and electricity use, as well as human traffic lines. The design documents, estimates, thermal environment data, occupant data, and a set of simulation models are made available under a General Public License, with the intention of making the information public and creating a distribution system that supports multiple creative activities.
