2 Learning outcome Design course with emphasis on the understanding of climate as source for making architecture COURSE FOCUS TUNING

3 SKILLS & KNOW-HOW Climate and site analysis, Climate adaptation principles Energy modeling and environmental performance analyses tectonics of energy efficient buildings up to passive house standards Advanced materials for energy efficiency. Input output

4 Task 2: studio >> climate adapation

5 TASK 2 _ Longyearbyen, Svalbard Transformation and reuse of the old power station

6 TASK 2 _ project description Built in 1924, the old power station in Longyearbyen, is today a protected building because of its high historical value in regard to the city memory and roots. Since the building was dismissed in 1982, there has been no maintenance or refurbishment going on. Because of that the building states nowadays in poor condition, risking to become soon irreversible considering its exposure to extreme climatic conditions. The Governor of Longyearbyen is thus seeking for creative ideas for the transformation and reuse of the building and challenge students at NTNU in the development of proposals for the transformation and refunctionalization of the building.

20 CLIMATE AND BUILT FORM AAR AAR4832 The course on climate and built form at NTNU is part of the Master of Science program in Sustainable Architecture. Inside both theory and design courses students are trained, through both theory and practice, in understanding the architectural design of climate adapted buildings as a meaningful process based on the understanding of the climate as a source for making architecture. Theory lectures provide knowledge of climate analysis, architectural design of bioclimatic buildings, energy modeling and tectonics (up to passive house standards). To most lectures correspond a laboratory letting students to develop their abilities in computer based energy modeling (simulation tools). Main focus of the course is the environmental performance of climate adapted buildings and their ability to passively create comfortable internal conditions. Thus energy. While task01 aims at analyzing relevant examples of climate adapted buildings throughout the world, task02 will focus on the architectural design of energy efficient buildings in cold climatic contexts. In task02 in students will develop six different proposals for the retrofitting and transformation of the power station in Svalbard into a laboratory and research center for global warming and climate analyses accessible to both inhabitants and tourists. Particular attention will be given to the development of integrated solution able to merge structural, functional and environmental systems of the building into a one.
