3 Passive Building Design - as the basis for a sustainable community Passive Architecture Building Orientation Daylighting Shading Passive Heating Thermal Mass Natural Ventilation Efficient Envelopes Occupant Health Architecture

4 Passive Design - early stages of design development Exterior blinds to reduce thermal energy transmission on the west facade of the buildings Light access into internal corridors External circulation designed to encourage the use of stairwells for vertical circulation Cross ventilation and the use of evaporative cooling ponds for climate tempering Planning + Infrastructure Architecture

5 The completed Village prior to the Olympic period Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

6 Parcel 6 and parcel 3 Image captures the extent of the green roofs and exterior amenities provided at the roof top along with the amenity spaces and areas for urban agriculture. Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

9 Parcel 6 - the courtyard Evaporative ponds provide cooling of air flow across courtyard Focus on the creation of private spaces for relaxation and contemplation. 50% of all roof areas are green Focus on the creation of private spaces for relaxation and contemplation. Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

10 GBL Architects Group - Parcel 2 including the affordable housing the entrance foyer of the affordable housing. amenity spaces for children within the affordable housing The facades of the affordable housing are matched with the design and quality of the market housing Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

11 Parcel 2 and Parcel 3 - the interior courtyards The interior courtyard to the City of Vancouver Affordable housing with the children s play area as the centre piece. Building exterior finishes match to the quality of private buildings. The courtyard and evaporative water pond in parcel 3. Moving day for the new residents. Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

12 Arthur Erickson and Nick Milkovich - Parcel 4 Designed by the late Arthur Erickson - this waterfront building provides large high end suites. The building twists like a stack of cards - rotating around a centre point in each building The facade is constructed of aluminum panels and large panes of double glazing which meet the 70/30 split for glass versus wall area. The resulting scales create 7400 individual panels. Planning + Infrastructure Architecture

13 Streets in the sky - as a way of creating animation and community the upper floors of parcel 10 are accessed via a street in the sky - requiring that owners exit the elevator to the exterior and then access their front door from the sky street The blinds down on the western exterior of the Plaza block providing both sun shade and privacy to the west facing balconies Walkways accessing the northern thru units - that benefit from cross ventilation Green roof on the top of the south block of parcel 10 Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

14 Streetscapes - focused on street life and meeting places The opening celebration with parcel 5 behind - GBL Architect group Athletes way looking towards the community center. The entry foyer to Parcel 10 Walter Hardwick way - featuring narrow road allowance, flush sidewalks, sloped to a central drain, drained to the stormwater management system. Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

15 Streetscapes - focused on street life and meeting places The historic reflection of the shipyard history captured in the ribs that act as light standards The historic Salt Building opens to the Public Plaza The Shipyard with public seating and an entertainment stage for public performance Planning Architecture + Infrastructure

18 Planning + Infrastructure Architecture

19 Architecture - lessons learned Lessons Learned about architecture and passive design Form of development has significant implications on community integration Incentives required to encourage developers and designers to implement passive design strategies Fully integrated design required to achieve energy reductions and resource savings Fully integrated design required for thermal hydronic heating and cooling systems Architecture

20 Architecture - lessons learned Innovative concepts require leadership and capacity building within the industry Significant change will require legislation to force industry to achieve mandated efficiencies and carbon footprint reductions Architecture

21 Architectural - Question How to encourage architects and developers to adopt passive design strategies? Architecture
