Sustainable construction with emphasis on energy efficiency and green construction principles
Conceptual building design was based on functionality, while all solutions took an inferior place to sustainable construction. The design followed the integral design principles and interdisciplinary cooperation of all designers and investor as early as in the design plan phase. Low-energy principles influenced the placement of the building in the environment and consequently the strict orientation of the south facade of the building.
A special attention was paid to the envelope airtightness of the building, which was already considered during the foundation works. Each thermal bridge on the facade and the roof was insulated, while the entire building has a 20 centimetre insulation. We have chosen only quality and durable materials and strived towards perfectness of each and every detail.
Renewable energy sources and central control system
Our basic principle was to use as many renewable energy sources as possible. The majority of energy the building uses are geothermal and solar energies. We are utilising natural resources for heating, cooling, generating electricity, ventilation and sanitary water. All renewable energy sources are interconnected through a reversible heat pump, which provides for heating and hot water as well as passive and active cooling of the building. We used a 40 m water borehole, four 100 m geoprobes, earth-air heat exchanger, 50 m³ rainwater tank and 50-kw solar power system.
Central control system allows us to regulate lighting, fire detection and fire alarm system, technical surveillance, ventilation and room temperature, mechanical devices and air conditioning as well as window blinds.
Functional and creative working environment
Rooms have a dynamic and functional design, while colours and details provide an interesting, positive and stimulative working environment. Well-being of users is improved with well-lit rooms with plenty of natural light, combined with an option for digital lighting regulation, as well as with clean, cooled and humidified fresh air.
Bioclimatic construction elements provide for a more favourable climate
We have incorporated bioclimatic elements into architectural design with horticulture landscaping around the building and with terrace troughs for plants. Intense planting and additional shading at the south parts of the facade provide for an even more favourable climate.
We produce more energy than we consume
We generate our own electricity with photovoltaic power station on the building’s roof and carport. In view of the specific energy consumption, required for heating and total
energy consumption, we can say that the building is achieving all standards of a passive building. The building is an energy-plus building, as it produces more energy than it consumes. Power consumption of 1,260 m2 use-surface is merely X MWh or x Euro per year.
The potential of an energy efficient building has been recognised by the Slovenian and European award committee
Effective design and sustainable construction of the Kobra business building was awarded by the 2013 Finance magazine for the URE (energy-efficiency) and OVE (renewable energy sources) project and 2014 Greenbuilding Integrated Design Award. The awards were presented to the Kobra Team investor and company Protim Ržišnik Perc arhitekti in inženirji.
