On every occasion, each research project is placed within its context, even if we are doing very specific research. It is a bit like a puzzle: cutting-edge research is one piece of the puzzle, but once the research project is completed, the result of that piece is put back into the puzzle. Here are some examples of research developed in the team: the thermoair circulation, double-skin facades, the launch of the Energie+ encyclopedia, lime hemp plaster, the urban square and the microclimate, the renovation of the built heritage with interior insulation (which is rare in Belgium), the construction of a model house in 1992 with 250 measurement points and a consumption of 18 kWh/m2 energy need (compared to a 450 kWh/m2 energy need at ENSAM), a study of emergency tents for the Red Cross which can respond to several climates and be light and small for transport by plane and the publication of the Monitor’s “Treatise of architecture and bioclimatic urban planning” together with ADEME.
In terms of light and lighting, we created an artificial solar system for models. In terms of light, there is no scale effect. If you build a model with the colors matching your future building, you will take exactly the same photo in the model as in your future building.
