already crowded urban areas.

NCTU/TEAM UNICODE is organized and sponsored by Taiwan’s National Chiao-Tung University (NCTU), which is the leading academy which neighbors the world-famous innovative HsinChu Science Park, Taiwan’s equivalence of Silicon Valley. TEAM UNICODE regards Solar Decathlon Europe 2014 as an excellent opportunity to develop a strategic prototype for urban housing with innovative, sustainable solutions that offers as alternative to solving the above housing issue. The Team approached the design by incorporating strong backings from local solar-technology resources (note: Taiwan is ranked the world’s second largest solar-equipment manufacturer) and the globally renowned Taiwan orchid agriculture, into the target project - the Orchid House.

Taiwan is an island situated off the eastern edge of Asian continent with abundant variety of ecological and geological features. Two-thirds of the island is covered by over two hundreds of rugged mountain-ridges and most of the rivers are short and swift before reaching the ocean. Monsoon and typhoons are seasonal and earthquakes are frequent. Consequently, the ecosystem of Taiwan is diversified yet fragile and sometimes vulnerable specially when facing rapid industrial growth and increasing pressure from urban development. Most of the population concentrated in several metropolitan cities along the west coast. The shear demographic density and limited land supply made Sustainability a pressing priority for repositioning the current urban development and its future strategies. Two of the most challenging tasks in this aspect are - 1) to optimize sustainable land use, and 2) to creatively use, or re-use, feasible spaces in the

The Orchid House is a manifestation of Sustainability as an urban residential renewal/addition as well as a promotion of “green mentality” for future life style. It is so positioned primarily for future applications in high-density urban areas where land supply is limited and a great percentage of the residential buildings may benefit from either a holistic or partial renewal. The core value of such position is in minimizing potential commuting in order to reduce carbon emission and air pollution. Additionally, the increase of livable space due to such renewal creates possibility to offer affordable housing to young urban professionals. The current provision of affordable housing in Taiwan is solely done by the government, and the options are quite limited. space due to such renewal creates possibility of offering social housing to young urban professionals. The current provision of social housing in Taiwan is solely by the government, and the options are quite limited.

TEAM UNICODE’s prototype of Orchid House is to be applied on the rooftops of urban residential housing ad an affordable option.

The utilization of roof terrace has its cultural root in Taiwanese. The Orchid House is designed with a flexible interior plan to be adapted for flexible configurations and for various functions. Such additional space is a valuable offer for housing, social space, or family gathering. It further provides existing owners an incentive to renovate and facilitate the use of rooftop, which may otherwise remain underutilized, if not abandoned.

A house is like a plant. The leaves collect dewdrops, and the roots absorb water, which circulate in the stems, and the leaves perform photosynthesis. This cycle creates water and energy, which are then properly stored and supplied to the entire plant. Our house will function similarly, as the solar panels absorb and convert light from the sun, into energy that is stored in the battery then supplied to the rest of the house. We can also harvest, circulate, recycle and reuse our own water.

We draw our first key concept metaphorically from Orchid, which is a family of unique, abundant and beautiful plants in Taiwan. They grow symbiotically on tall trees, nourished by a perfected balance weather of indirect sunlight and supply of rainwater. Our solar house prototype which is targeted to be developed and implemented in the future on rooftops over a great number of existing urban housing in

Taiwan. The second key concept is “Blue Sky” which carefully concern about both the water and urban issue. To offer such added rooftop space for affordable Youth housing via policy backing, a solution that is aligned with the government's policy. And, Last but not the least, ”Power House” is the keyword we envisage a reclaimed civic space on the roof can offer a valuable social and economic engine to a new Taipei.

The concept of Orchid House is designed according to the Taiwanese local conditions, it offers benefits in energy, urban, and social aspects. We are extremely excited and proud about SDE competition and the opportunity to create this wonderful solution. We wish Orchid House's values help to improve the quality of built environment not only in Taiwan but the entire global community.

Young urban professionals had been mostly exclud-ed from the possibility of living in the heart of Tai-pei City due to significantly higher housing rent and price. In our survey, 48.29% of the rooftops in Taipei possessed the highest potential for the application of Orchid House. Among these rooftops, 62% of the buildings are well over 30 years in age and require major renewal. Assume a mere 10% of the above rooftops were to apply Orchid House, it will supply up to 30,000 young professionals for their hous-ing needs. The new houshous-ing supply not only offers affordable, sustainable life style, but also creates easier accessibility to workplace and social environ-ment. Additionally, we envision it as an opportunity to establishes a stronger socio-economical founda-tion for young people’s business start-up. Eventual-ly, we target to enhance the urban social fabric by having more younger generation’s participation for developing a more comprehensive, integrated com-munity.

For the SDE 2014 competition, the Orchid House will be configured in an “L” shape containing a one-bedroom family unit with a large common terrace and rooftop. A “green-core” sets in the heart f the house which consists of greeneries that also serves to regulate the microenvironment as well as indoor planting area.

Ximending District was one of the oldest sections when the city of Taipei was first developed. It is sit-uated at the west side along the river, which used to be a bustling harbour. One hundred years ago, Xi-mending District flourished with the location advan-tages, however, as the city’s growth moves towards the more inland, east part of the city after 1980’s, Ximending gradually became a quieter, residential area with scarce business activities. It is only until recent years that the build-up of citywide MRT (Tai-pei Metro Rapid Transit System) that reconnects Xi-mending to the public transportation network and it regained the momentum with increased infrastruc-tural efficiency. The traditional, culinfrastruc-tural vibrancy of Ximending quickly transformed into an attraction to,

not only the out-of-town tourists, but also the local younger generation, and a lively mix of the old and new starts to develop.

TEAM UNICODE researched extensively throughout Taipei and select Ximending as it most potent tar-get area for future application of the Orchid House prototype. This district consists of mostly 4-5 sto-ry buildings with a clear grid network of streets, which was laid as a business district at first during the Japanese colonization. With the cultural attrac-tion, public accessibility, and infrastructural efficient street system, XiMenDing is considered to possess the most favourable conditions for the application of Orchid House prototype.

Our goal is to bridge the generation gap and integrate more eco-friendly buildings in the process. As one of the aspects of environmental architecture is to disturb the surroundings as little as possible, we choose "Urban Regeneration" as our goal because we strive not only to improve the architecture of crowded cities like Taipei, but also to target social issues by addressing the social, economic, and physical needs of the people. Our solution is to build on top of existing buildings – specifically, the row houses and duplex apartments that are approximate reaching 48.29% that is extremely common in Taipei.

Orchid House solution also aims to improve the visual aspects of the city’s skyline. Presently, most of the roofs are spotted with aluminium water tanks or covered by sheet metal roofs. The Orchid House rooftops of existing buildings, creating a place to live and socialize, as well as to put the necessary mechanical features.

With urban regeneration, we plan to expand existing structures with as little disruption to the original architecture and its occupants as possible, as well as solve the problems to the existing buildings, such as: 1) we will solve waterproof on the roof posed potential leaking problems. 2) integrate aesthetically and functionally the newly-added building equipment (i.e. water tanks, solar panels, etc.) on the existing buildings. 3) build the addition Orchid House with public safety and durable tectonics. 4) thrive the valuable outdoor spaces on the rooftop especially for a high-density city. 5) repair the dated piping and building

electrical systems properly. In response to these critical issues above, our Orchid House aims to solve all these urgent problems with designing carefully to fit on pre-existing buildings. We can reduces not only the costs, but also construction time especially on the two building types we plan to target -- row houses and duplex apartments. These two different rooftop shapes, can transform the Orchid House designing in an "L" shape and an “I” shape. The short arm of the "L", the bedroom, can be detached to make an "I" shaped studio. This "I" shaped structure fits perfectly on the long, narrow rooftops of row houses; the stairs of the Orchid House can be connected to the original stairs of the row house, and the mezzanine level can become an open socializing space for all the tenants of the building. on the long, narrow rooftops of row houses; the stairs of the Orchid House can be connected to the original stairs of the row house, and the mezzanine level can become an open socializing space for all the tenants of the building.

Moreover, when applied to the wider duplex apartment buildings, the "L" shaped Orchid House can be mirrored to form a sideways "C". Not only does this form efficiently increase the number of youth houses, but it also contributes to the lives of the original occupants of the apartment. The terrace space within the "C" can have multiple purposes. For example, it can be used as an area to gather and hold social events; people can cultivate plants for aesthetics or for food which idea we’ll use in Dinner Party in competition, and for improved air quality; the apartment can also utilize the terrace as space to extend its pre-existing elevator. In the last case, the Orchid House can contribute even more by sharing some of the electricity harvested by its solar panels and using it to power the elevator. The Orchid House will not be a standalone addition to the skyline, they will form into clusters which can interdependent social and economic ecosystem across the communities. Ultimately, they will trigger transformation of old neighbourhood to create a revival living environment and a sustainable renewably urban.

Duplex house Essentially, the best and primary intention of NCTU/

TEAM UNICODE is to create a single dwelling proto-type that focuses on environmental and social issues which is based on the available lot sizes and specific building conditions, i.e. the shape s of the roof and the location of the existing circulation. We will form Orchid House into clusters inspiring by Taiwanese traditional courtyard style space, which represent to the need of co-living and co-working lifestyle. Our design will reduce the heat island effect of Tai-pei and encourage households to conserve resourc-es and use lresourc-ess dresourc-estructive forms of energy. In ad-dition to our “green rooftop system” we also intend to create passive wind ventilation systems that will save energy in the naturally hot and humid Taiwan environment. Furthermore, our design will also contribute greatly to improving the collective Youth housing program of Taiwan and provide better living conditions for the population.

of this natural ecosystem, and regenerates new principles of housing design, such as 1) follow the best angle of the roof to increase solar yields 2) functions as a micro eco-system 3) combines both passive and active strategies 3) utilize BMS (Building Management System) and BESS (Battery Energy Storage System).

We have designed the house so that both sunlight and water are utilized to ensure optimal living conditions and minimal waste. Our house harnesses natural light not only to generate electric

Design Approach

The concept of our house is based on local conditions, but we are confident that these systems are applicable around the globe. The challenge is to design a house that functions well in the both dry and humid conditions. However, this will provide us with valuable experience that will contribute to our plans of marketing the house in different cities and countries.

Taiwan suffers from unpleasant illegal rooftop structures that are made with metal sheets to maximize shading and natural ventilation through creating a buffer zone. Our solar house is an opportunity to solve this problem, along with other social issues and to promote sustainable living. NCTU/TEAM UNICODE takes the essence

energy through the photovoltaic panels integrated on the roof, but also to regulate the internal temperatures of the house through a thermal mass wall. We also maximize water efficacy by using greenhouse evaporative cooling and drip irrigation systems. Lastly, the functions of sunlight and water intersect to provide heated water that can be used domestically as well as to regulate indoor temperatures when it is cold outside. The implementation of such systems will provide great benefit at little cost, as the lightweight structure of the house will allow for efficient construction and low budgets.

Recycling Material

Given the premises of the SDE competition is tar-geted to design and build a single house, however,

our aspiration is to develop a potential prototype of urban housing for the young start-ups in the city. For achieving such goal with affordability, we conceived a rather flexible, modularized structural system which is expandable for multi-storey urban buildings. We further facilitate the prototyping with sustainable principle by utilizing recycled steel, sponsored by Tung-Ho Steel Company - the leading ship-recycling corporation in Taiwan. In Taiwan, 95% of steel is recyclable, thus we gained excellent steel recycling know-how during the heyday of disassembling ships. In terms of lifecycle, Steel is 6 times as long as RC. With the same area of con-struction, if using Steel, comparatively, we can save 30% of carbon emission, 15% of debris pollution and 20% of greenhouse air release.

imum self-sufficiency in many ways such as the utilization of solar energy, recycling rainwater for drip-irrigation for the local agriculture of vege-tation as one of the food sources. NCTU/TEAM UNICODE’s “Orchid House” will incorporate all of the progressive technology that is available in the NCTU research lab, Hsinchu Science and Technology Industrial park, as well as all over Taiwan, including greenhouse technologies, digital environmental control interfaces, solar thermal collectors, and high efficiency photovoltaic panels. However, if we only rely on those technologies, the construction costs will likely exceed the limit of market availability. We aim to make the Orchid House available at a low cost by distributing and mixing those technologies with other passive methods and think about what is the real sustainability. Taiwan is a kingdom of Gar-bage-Recycle, for example, 1) we use recycled ma-terial such as plastic for heat storing wall-- thermal mass, 2) we have achieved 97% of plastic recycling. 3) we have achieved 48% of wood dust recycling. In Orchid House, it is made for our outdoor flooring. 4) we have achieved 92% glass recycling. In Orchid House, it is used for heat and sound proof materi-als.

In order to utilize the passive solar system, which uses 90% less energy for heating and cooling compared to existing building and archives 75% overall energy savings, we have carefully considered the layout of the house. The west side of the house is composed of a long POLLI-Brick™ wall that will act as a thermal mass, which will absorb heat during the day that will be released at night when it is colder. We deal with issues of overheating with strategies such as careful placement of windows.

NCTU/TEAM UNICODE creates three keywords of the Orchid House Project, the first one is "Green Core." In Taiwanese traditional courtyard housing setup, the center of that is where people connecting with the nature. We turn the courtyard vertically to become the green core, the hub of Orchid House, where it moderates the temperature, exchange fresh air and using recycling system for irrigation of plants. Besides, it will minimize the energy consumption for cooling and heating the living space. Using evaporative cooling strategy which is inspired by the orchid growers and green plants of Taiwan, the house will remain cool on the inside even during hot summer days. Hot air will enter the house through louvers that cover the indoor water subunit, called “water wall”, which

(16)

collects and uses rain water to cool down the air with evaporation. The cool air is then drawn through the house by several large, silent fans stationed at the opposite end of the house. On the other hand, during the winter, the louvers will be closed to prevent frigid air from entering the Orchid House. Additionally, the main water unit, which is heated using solar energy, will provide hot water that will circulate under the floorboards to radiate heat. Our choice of POLLI-Brick™, which is made by the recycled plastic bottles, is filled with water and act as thermal mass, which absorbs heat during the day, and release radiant heat at night. It will also be invaluable to providing heat through passive solar methods.

Taiwan is hit by an average of 3.7 typhoons per year and these storms can produce heavy rainfall and strong winds, leading to severe damage to agriculture and industry, and serious loss of human life. Our ancestors used to collect rainwater with organically shaped ponds (Pi-Tang) for irrigation. Orchid House serves identical function as well as filtering rainwater. In order to conserve resources and act environmentally, we will harvest rain water in a subunit water tank close to the roof. This reservoir will be used not only as part of the cooling

Water Harvesting and Usage

system as mentioned above, but also as a source of water for the various plants in the house. We have looked into drip irrigation as the most efficient use of our resources for watering the vegetation. Not only is drip irrigation 20-40% more efficient than traditional sprinkler methods, but also it maintains a more suitable balance of air and water in the soil for optimal plant growth. Each year, we are able to collect 2,900 ton water, increasing reservoir intake by 15%. Moreover, it can make up extra supply for 8.8% local residents’ daily water usage.

Large cosmopolitan urban areas such as the nation's capital city, Taipei, have limited usable land, and extremely high population densities when comparing with others. The majority of the Taipei population live in 4-5 story apartments and row houses, which compose nearly 48.29% of the rooftops in Taipei. These rooftops are our opportunity to establish urban regeneration, with solar power. Therefore, we target to use Orchid House not only for regenerating the new urban skyline but also recycling the water for irrigation system. We aim to improve the current Taipei roof aesthetic and create a new social space for living.

(17)

The Power House

Through roofs where Orchid House situates, we generate solar power and create social & economic engine. We consider our scheme towards develop-ing an engine for initiatdevelop-ing social influences in sev-eral aspects - a network of social spaces, housing renewal, housing issues for the younger generation, and an overall green approach for such execution. Therefore, the Orchid House choose to tackle SDE’s sustainability agenda by embracing the mission to revitalize not merely the housing supply strategy but also a sustainable social impacts by offering the future generation a new possibility. In other words, we aspires to offer an innovative strategy that pro-vides the hard space as well as the vital momentum for continuing social changes.

Lighting system

To save energy and in the same time, to achieve desired lighting effect, LED is chosen for artificial lighting, which design will be an integral element of the house and its energy system. Taiwan is current-ly one of the largest manufacturers of LED in the world and NCTU’s research institute is also taking part of the industry. We will use the most efficient light source on the market and integrate all lighting with the house sensor system to monitor the room for brightness, comfort, and temperature. Our elec-trical lighting will work with the mechanical system to increase system efficiency. All the heat generat-ed by the light source will be pairgenerat-ed with the perfor-mance of air delivery systems to avoid wasting

PV system

Based on Earth Policy Institute (EPI) survey, Taiwan is the 2nd largest solar PV producing country among the world in 2010. However, Taiwan’s photovoltaic peak power capacity is about 206 MWp in 2012, which is less than other countries. NCTU/TEAM UNICODE is aware this situation and wish to raise the social awareness in this solar energy issues. Among many companies we have researched, we have noticed the innovative work of a Taiwanese company called the Delta Group. An offshoot company, Delta, is a leading PV manufacturer in the global industry, products have cell efficiencies ranging from 18% to 20%, which allows the Orchid House to harvest more energy using less material. Our design team is working closely with their re-search team to develop the most efficient PV system for the house. For the Orchid House PV system, we utilize the Multi-Crystalline module for its high efficiency and cost performance. Besides, it is light weight and easy to install on the Orchid House e. Annually, we can save 1410GWH electricity; 585 times as large as the capacity of solar power batter-ies all together in Taipei. Electricity generated by Orchid House can supply 36% of electricity demand in Taipei.
