DIN DAENG SOCIAL HOUSING PROJECT : The Breeze

Din Daeng Social Housing Project : The Breeze Project Description With the goals towards a zero-carbon society, Din Daeng is the social housing project which depends on the sustainability as well as the comfort of the dwellers. Din Daeng Social Housing is a part of the Din Daeng Urban Development Project under the responsibility of Thailand's National Housing Authority (NHA). The area covers 157 Rais, or 251,200 m2. The NHA's plan aims to relocate the existing dwellers to the new buildings as well as to provide additional housing for new urban dwellers. Re-designing this project reqiures a lot of knowlege and analysis on the experiences and daily encountered issues of the current users along wih the consideration of in reducing carbon emissions as well as promoting the health and well -being of the urban dwellers.

There are two types of residential units, one with the area of 29.4 sqm one bedroom unit and 32.5 sqm one bedroom unit. The bigger unit serves as the luxury type with larger area and spacious dining facility. The balconies are accessible both from the bedrooms and living rooms. Equally, every unit allows cross-ventilation and as corner units having two-side openingswhich can be the selling point of the design.

Current problem in the housing to take consideration into redesigning

Further design consideration

Community Garden on the 7th floor not being able to use due to the extreme sun radiation and heat Double corridor with residents opening the doors which create privacy issues The requirements of shared spaces and activities usable by the dwellers

- Open and street market opportunity as in the old din daeng housing - Create more community spaces that create the comunity atmosphere

Design Concept and Design Development

Concept - BREATHING

The concept of the design is to make the building looks like it is breathing. The main goals of the design are to achieve natural ventilation in the units and create community spaces that allow natural flow of social interaction into lives of the residents in this building. – people will have the sense of community atmosphere when they are just walking through the corridor and just living their daily lives. The community spaces are visually connected although they are on different levels.

To do this, the gaps are created between units by shifting the building columns on certain levels. In design development process, many sustainable factors are taken into consideration from building orientation to orientation of the openings as well as the balcony. The angular balconies are the final touch of this design to add some essence to the design. The podium design uses the design that follows the same language as the design the balconies of the units above.

1. Building Orientation The first thing is the orientation of the building.

In passive building design reponse to solar radiaition, in this region near equator, the sun is mostly in above the head inclining a bit to south. So, according to weather analysis, east and west are the two sides which get many direct sun hours as well as radiation. So, we reduce the parameter of the building and number of rooms being exposed to sun, the building oreientation is developed from sun direction analysis

Natural Flow of social interaction

Ventilation Gaps

4. Every unit getting corner views and ventilation

Shared Gardens

Every units with cross ventilation

Visually connected gardens Increase indoor environmental quality

Every units being corner units Alternative shifting to break down the scale and dynamics quality of the building

School of Architecture and Design King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi

Arch 344 Architecture Design Studio IV Year 3 Ding Daeng Social Housing Project : The Breeze

Since Din-Daeng is the residential development zone, the potential high rise buildings can block the views of the units. To generate cross ventialtion and to have corner view opportunities as the corner units, the units are sepearted with gap allowing air flow throughout the building. The alternative shifting is the idea of avoiding very high gap between the units.

2. Shifting the mass

3. Generating community atmosphere

To achieve the passive building design is integrating cross ventilation into the building as well as units. In buildings that contains many residential units like this 300-units apartment, the corridor arepretty long considering the efficiency of the building. To reduce the articial air conditioning and lighting in corridor, the building mass starts to develop from this basic idea. The shifting form of building is to give spacial articulation for massive air flow as well as green space to create the air quality of the building.

School of Architecture and Design King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi

The shifting form generates the space in the mid part of the building, here, we are creating the community atmosphere in residential levels. Instead of just giving space for people to gather, I want to create the natural flow of social interaction in dailty lives of the users. So, in middle levels, some floors have community space like gardens which have visual connection between the different floors.

5. Articulating the corner units on bridge side

6. No residential zoning near bridge

I oriented the units on certain floors in response to the site situation by the bridge side. These units will come bigger units getting the oppotunity to have more views and bigger dining area.

By the condition of by the bridge, the residential levels are moved fom this bridge-being-able-to-view level by making the lower levels the car parking zone.

With the main area being loacted on the north side of the building as well as getting shade from residential units above, the community garden is connected with above co-shared spaces and continous along the corridor that surrounds other co-shared spaces on this floor.

Due to the noise concern, the laundry area is located in the corner . However, the ones who wait for laundry are easily accessible to co-shared spaces as well.

4 different residential floor plans and their articulation for community spaces

29.4 sqm units are the mostly common type units being arranged one, two and three modules allowing the ventilation gap between the units.

32.5 sqm units are on the west side so they are tilted responding to the direct sunlight and are more luxury unit types allowing full corner views as well as dining area.

The green community area are integrated on mid floors to allow the natural flow of social interaction between the neighbours on the same floor as well as from different ones.

The emergency stairs are located not exceeding 10m from the dead end of the floor plan.

The fireman lift and main lift lobby core is loacted in the centre of the plan near the community gardens of each floor.
