Bioclimatic architecture: taking advantage of environmental conditions to ditch air conditioning

The challenge of bioclimatic architecture is to make the best possible use of climatic conditions to improve our comfort. Éric Bussolino, the architect involved in the construction of the arrivals terminal at Reunion island airport explains why the work is "a militant act".

In partnership with the European Commission

00:01This project is a militant act.
00:04It's an act militant on the bio-climate dimension,
00:06but also an act militant on the emotional dimension.
00:10There is a sense of comfort in the passengers
00:12who pass from an airplane very climatic,
00:13with a cold temperature,
00:15to a device or a large volume
00:17which is ventilated naturally,
00:18and in which we feel well.
00:23In a tropical climate,
00:25we will try to avoid cold weather,
00:26such as natural ventilation.
00:28And depending on the force of the wind,
00:30we have three positions.
00:32One semi-fermed,
00:33one semi-ouvert,
00:34and one completely ouvert,
00:35which allows us to generate
00:37an aerodynamic flow or less important.
00:41There is a weather station,
00:42which measures both the wind
00:45but also potentially the pollution of the wind,
00:47which can generate the temperatures of the wind.
00:50Then there is an aerodynamic vehicle,
00:52which allows us to accelerate the wind speed
00:54so that we have an optimal speed
00:56in the top of the vehicle.
01:02So,
01:03the climate climate,
01:04is what is the goal of the climate climate?
01:04What is the goal of the climate climate?
01:04What is the goal of the climate climate?
01:04It's to look at the climate climate
01:05and explore the best
01:07as compared to the comfort requirements.
01:09There are different architectural facilities
01:10that exist,
01:12but they are possible to decline
01:13in all the countries and on all the world
01:14and on all the projects.
01:14there are items in or universal places.
01:20Thank you,
01:25I hope you enjoyed it!
