Master Focus \u00abArchitecture & Energy\u00bb \u2013 Project by Werner Weibel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The project is based on the idea of taking advantage of the omnipresent wind currents in Algiers and designing a building that, on the one hand, creates living space and, on the other, autonomously produces energy. The project is thus intended to form an antithesis to the creation of wind farms outsourced from the cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The location of the construction site on the steep slope of Mont Plaisant, offers an exceptional view of the Bay of Algiers as well as the hilly landscape surrounding the city. The elaborated structure is additionally exposed to the wind due to its height, in order to maximize the energy production in the form of vertical rotor wind turbines. The funnel-like ground plan conception leads to a further increase of the energy yield by using the Bernoulli effect. The building appears to the outside in two different ways. The funnel-like sides exposed to the wind are designed as plane, wind-conducting facades. The sides facing away from the wind, projecting and receding, protect the balconies, allowing their use despite the high wind speeds.<\/p>\n\n\n
