Casa ZS

The project presents the form of the classic architectural archetype. Great importance was given to the glazed openings to ensure the dual function of connection with the outside and optimization of passive solar contribution. The materials used for the construction of the building are mainly natural: from the wooden structure, to the insulation in rice straw, with RH-P, used for the perimeter walls, roofing and for basement floors. The internal walls were realized using clay slabs and plaster RH400 composed by clay and rice husk. On the external walls, the RH100 plaster, based on lime and rice husk, was applied to ensure thermal insulation.
