26 BBC-standard homes in Tourcoing by atelier 9.81
In northern France, atelier 9.81 is currently building 26 BBC-standard homes in Tourcoing for Vilogia, with completion scheduled for October. The scheme totals 2,421 m² and has a budget of €4 million. The project has BBC Effinergie certification, with an energy consumption of 65 kWh/m²/year.
The architects' approach is based on semi-collective housing. The scheme is divided into seven blocks of T3 (70.27 m²) and T5 (94.51 m²) units. The structure combines timber from native species with concrete, and is clad in Eternit at ground-floor level and larch on the upper floor.
Residents will have semi-private gardens. Communal areas will be lit by LEDs, and private areas by low-energy bulbs.
The distinctive feature of the project is the addition of bioclimatic greenhouses of 12 or 22 m². The buildings have a double layer of mineral wool insulation. Heat is supplied by a collective vertical geothermal plant.
Ventilation will be provided by a mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery. Hot water will be supplied by solar panels, and heat will be distributed by underfloor heating. A network of swales will manage rainwater.
