My design believe is that the best architecture
comes from a blend of all the elements that separately comprise the character of a building such as the structure that holds it up; the services that allow it to function, its ecology, the quality of natural light, the symbolism of the form, the relationship of the building to the urban fabric of the society, the way you move through around it and last but not least its ability to lift the built environment.

Yearly energy consumption
Integerated strategy with renewable resources reduced 40% energy consumption.
Study of solar gains in South
Solar gains are reduced significantly reducing both WWR (from 0.70 to 0.40) and by using an overhang of 0.50 m.

Sunderland Royal Hospital Sustainable refurbishment strategies
STRATEGY1:LIGHT TOUCH INTERVENTION
Sunder Royal hospital was constructed in 1853 and later got several expansion in construction till 2009. The concept was to refurbish the main wing of the hospital with sustainable technologies to achieve the target of health technical memorandum 07-07; sustainable health and social care buildings memorial targets of energy consumption 55-65 GJ/100 m3 and 131 kgCO2/m2 emission targets of CIBSE TM46. Moreover, due to rise in the intensity of future weather conditions; integrated design strategy were finalized with the results of simulation in future weather conditions in 2050 and 2080. Design strategies were developed in three steps and explained further.
BUILDING PERFORMANCE. BASE CASE
KEY DESCRIPTION
Percentage of people dissatisfied increases due to higher temperatures (future climate scenario).SouthWest oriented wards show an average PPD increase of 72% by 2080 scenario. North-East oriented wards show a variable increase by 2080 scenario, from +52.53% (first floor) to +63.99% (fourth floor).
Light touch intervention strategy ; reduction of temporary dislocation of clinical activities , envelope improvement and building technolgies service which are suitable for low budget intervention .However, the results produced limited improvement.
In depth intervention strategy ; involved higher operational impact ,addition of infrastructure such as double skin facade , green roof structure and usage of renwable energy resources .Thus, the results produced larger improvement.
2080 DSY
Current scenario: Total energy consumption is reduced from 567.35 kWh/m2to 287.75 kWh/m2 (reduction of 49.29%). What means that, according to comercial data, £99,631 are saved in gas bills and £15,571 are saved in electricity bills (total saving of £115,202).CO2 emissions has also been cut, from 150.52 KgCO2/m2 per year to 95.14 KgCO2/m2 per year. So 19,450 less trees would be needed to absorb Hospital´s emissions. Future scenario:Improvements in 2050 DSY and 2080 DSY are similar regarding the order of magnitude.
Indoor thermal comfort is achieved during the whole year.However, there is a reduction of hours above 28 ºC (CIBSE standard of over heating) in 2050 DSY (14.66 %), improvement in 2080 DSY is despicable (0.36%).
BUILDING PERFORMANCE :INTEGERATED SOLUTION
Current scenario:External wall and roof upgrading showed the higher impact on reducing energy demand. Future scenario:Decrease of energy consumed by heating and reduction in decrease of CO2 emissions, even at the expense of indoor thermal comfort.
2050 DSY
INDEPTH INTERVENTION :THERMAL PERORMANCE
STRATEGY 2: IN DEPTH INTERVENTION
BUILDING ENVELOPE UP GRADE
Baseline Current Weather
BUILDING PERFORMANCE :INTEGERATED SOLUTION
Ligt touch intervention reduces by 72.89% the base case energy c onsumption. However, this huge improvement is reduce to half when studying future weather climate.In depth intervention improves the energy performance, reducing by 90.06% the base case energy demand. Improvements in future scenarios are similar to base case (reduction of 92.85% by 2050 DSY and reduction of 93.85% by 2080 DSY).
