An alternative design approach for current energy-efficient housing concepts: conceptual framework enabling a dynamic way of living throughout the seasons Hasselt University
Due to environmental, economic and social developments, many sustainable housing concepts (e.g. passive house) have been implemented in practice with a strong focus on energy-efficiency. However, this induces new challenges such as an increase in material consumption, higher building costs and inefficient occupant behaviour due to a static built environment.
