“A 100 percent sustainable, self-build, co-housing scheme<\/strong>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am hoping to solve the climate and housing problems on the Isles of Scilly, including the second home ownership issue which leaves many residents struggling to own homes because of the increased house prices. This led me to develop key \u2018Zero Waste\u2019 principles. Considering the Scilly problems and the three pillars of holistic sustainability (community, economy and ecology) I am proposing an Ikea- type\/ wiki-house instruction booklet to self-build a 100 percent sustainable self-build co-housing scheme. This includes improving on existing sustainability standards.
I want to go beyond the Passivhaus certification and address embodied carbon and wellbeing.
I also want to push the co-housing principles to the max. Reconsidering the common house (a key element of a co-housing scheme) and adding the additional element of a zero waste, resident \u2013 run recycling centre, with workshop and shop to initiate a circular economy- waste to resource system on the island. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nThe THREE KEY DRIVERS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Materials used for their lifespan
2. Holistic sustainability
3. A cyclical house system <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nThe SITE PLAN<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A contrast between the structured “growth gardens” and “free,wild gardens” shows a buffer between public and private. Each residence and the commonhouse\/ recycling centre have their own 2 metre buffer perimeter.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nThe IN-BETWEEN<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A wild landscape embraces the houses and common house to re-introduce biodiversity and promote a sustainable way of living to the max.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nThe HOUSE MODEL<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To achieve 100 percent sustainability the house must be easily built, affordable and achieve (at minimum) a PassivHaus certification. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
