Assignment 1: Narrative
Among the many creative entries at the2009 Solar Decathlon, Cornell University's housestands out for its unusual shape, a series ofcylinders designed to evoke the historic silosfound in upstate New York. For this reason; theinterest and challenge that these shapes provided,coupled with the obvious attraction of having freelyavailable construction documents for a compact,well designed and sustainable home, I chose tobuild my Revit model based on the Cornell SolarHome. Designed for the 2009 Solar Decathlon,Cornell's entry, as previously stated, is made up ofa series of three 16 ft. diameter (130 sq. ft.) livingmodules which enclose a central courtyard.Suspended above these modules is an 8 kw arrayof solar panels that cover the entire structure,
serving to shade the various living modules below while creating an attractive top thatbrings the building together visually. To provide daylight and afford visual connection tothe courtyard, glazed walls run along the interior of the unit , orienting each module(kitchen, bedroom, and living room) as they relate to the courtyard. Adding to thissense of flexibility and openness is the furniture, which can rotate between inside andoutside. Exterior windows are restricted to narrow slots on each silo, while skylightsadmit added daylight to the interior.

The teams consideration for sustainable construction techniques goes beyondenvironmental control strategies however. For both the interior and exterior finishes,materials were chosen based on the dual needs of creating a healthy livingenvironment (preventing off-gassing, using sustainably harvested, or reused timber)and providing a warm and inviting living space for occupants. Sheathing the outside ofthe cylinders is a system of CORTEN corrugated steel cladding, which when in thesun, feeds a hot water heating system embedded within the wall. Additionally, all runoffis filtered through the roots of hydroponically grown plants, and reused as grey water.The result is a net zero house that makes great strides towards marrying sustainabilitywith contemporary design.
The house itself received mainly positive reviews at the 2009 competition, taking7th place overall out of 20 teams, and scoring well in a number of categories includinghot water, communications, and home entertainment.
