PRINCIPLES AND SOLUTIONS OF BIOCLIMATIC ARCHITECTURE ON THE PROJECT OF A FAMILY HOUSE IN KRAŠIĆI, MONTENEGRO
The aim of the presented work is to present the design of a residential house on the Montenegrin coast in the town of Krašići, designed according to the principles of bioclimatic architecture with reference to the systems whose implementation is foreseen during the design process. They refer to the applied measures of reducing total energy consumption, achieving thermal comfort during the winter and passive cooling during the summer. The work shows how solutions such as a green roof, glasshouse, green facade and other solutions are implemented during the design process in order to achieve the mentioned goals. Due to the increased construction of buildings in cities, the need for energy also increases, which is mainly satisfied by the use of non-renewable sources, known for leaving lasting consequences on the environment. Green construction and rational use of energy can contribute to saving resources and preserving the environment. The presented solution of the family house is trying to reduce the need for energy necessary for its efficient use throughout the year through a smart analysis of the location's potential. Coastal architecture, to which Montenegrin architecture belongs, is recognizable by its architecture in stone, stable and authentic. The author’s aim is to create a modern house that is in step with the times with its design expressions and applied systems, while at the same time respecting the Mediterranean tradition of building with stone. The family house, in addition to the desire of implementing the principles of bioclimatic architecture, first of all required a well-designed function so that, all together would result in a high-quality space for a family to stay on the attractive Montenegrin coast. Given that almost 90% of the time is spent in buildings, the family house, in addition to the desire to implement the principles of bioclimatic architecture, first of all required a well-solved function so that, all together, it would result in a quality space for the family to stay on the attractive Montenegrin coast.
