- Trias Ecologica Use infinite and sustainable resources
Limit demand, by preventing unnecessary use
Sustainable resources not possible? Use finite resources wisely
- Cradle to Cradle (cycle!) Can it be consumed?
Biosphere
Is it bio-degradable or compostable? Can it be incinerated in a clean way to generate energy?
- Local resources and little or no treatment? ORGA architect
Wood as part of the biological cycle

Vapor-open timberframing... Completely built out of biobased materials: wood bamboo clay plaster outside facade zone thatch work green facade hemp with a natural coating pressed clay bricks Biopolymers wood fibre thermal bridge isolation timber frame FSC wood

Modern ecological biobased dwelling house
ORGA architect
Material- and energy concept -- C2C materials from the biosphere - Wood building - Dry building methods - Vapor-open - Prefab construction - Shell insulation - EPDM under green roof - Ecological plastering - Plato wood (treated for durability) - Less use of metals - Insulation values at least RC 7,0 m2 K/W - Airtight sealing - Passive solar energy at the south side, north side closed - Awning for blocking sunlight in the summer - Low Temperature Heating - Completely natural ventilation - Solar collectors - Life cycle proof - Socket for electric car

Biobased building mainstream?
- localy available - easy to make - flexible in use
- competitive pricing - great freedom in design - more than material of the ‘poor’

To end with and to trigger your mind… What’s the best example of the ultimate biobased dwelling? -
completely biobased zero energy consumption in construction, use and demolition extremely high insulation ecological footprint = 0 zero cost easy to build completely part of the natural cycle no waste of materials in construction and demolition 100% recyclable
