架构师提供的文本描述。E/226-232高地在罗克斯伯里有四个新的三层木框架住宅。该项目是波士顿市能源加(E)绿色建筑计划的一部分，这是一项旨在开发能源正市价可持续住房的试点项目。这位建筑师和开发商是通过波士顿重新开发管理局组织的一个设计竞赛来挑选的，目的是在罗克斯伯里社区开发一个空置的城市所有的地块。

Text description provided by the architects. E+ // 226 – 232 Highland consists four new three-story wood-frame homes in Roxbury. The project is a part of the City of Boston’s Energy Plus (E+) Green Building Program, a pilot initiative to develop energy positive market rate sustainable housing. The architect and developer were selected through a design competition organized by the Boston Redevelopment Authority for the development of a vacant City Owned parcel in the Roxbury neighborhood.

Site Description

由于场地坡度很大，房屋从山下泻下，以表达场地的独特特性，并允许理想的太阳方向。聚集通过沿主要正面的对角线挫折来调节拐角处的状况，并打开侧院落，与街对面的公园相关联。

As the site significantly slopes, the homes cascade down the hill to express the unique character of the site and to allow for ideal solar orientation. The massing mediates the corner condition by striking a diagonal setback along the main frontage and opens up the side yard to relate to the park across the street

Design Concept

设计过程从一个元素盒开始-简单而经济的建造，以及可预测的密封和隔热的能力。箱体通过三种操作变形：1)建筑物为响应当地的城市环境而跨下街区；2)屋顶倾斜，使光伏电池板的太阳几何形状最大化；3)每个单元都有一个“倒车窗”，可提供充足的自然光，交叉通风，并与环境中有趣的表面几何图形相呼应。

The design process began with an elemental box -- simple and affordable to construct, and predictable in its ability to be tightly air sealed and insulated. The box is deformed through three operations: 1) the buildings step down the block in response to the local urban context, 2) the roofs are sloped to maximize solar geometry for photovoltaic panels and 3) a “reverse bay window” at each unit allows for generous natural light, cross ventilation and echoes the playful surface geometries of the context.

绿色建筑

这些家庭是认证LEED白金LEED的家庭，并已达到她的评级在-6至-9(横跨所有四个家庭)。建筑围护结构的设计具有耐热性：双钉墙结构，高绝缘水平，防止接缝和过渡处的空气渗透，以及安装三层玻璃高性能窗户都有助于减少取暖和冷却能源的使用。

The homes are certified LEED Platinum LEED for Homes and have achieved HERS ratings between -6 and -9 (across all four homes). The building envelopes are designed to be thermally robust: double-stud wall construction, high insulation levels, prevention of air infiltration at seams and transitions, and the installation of triple-glazed high performance windows all help to reduce heating and cooling energy use.

(三)太阳变换

该项目利用高效的HRVS(热回收呼吸机)进行空气交换和无导管的微型分离系统，以提供加热和冷却。坚硬的地板，清洁的脚垫，以及在入口附近促进脱鞋的区域，都是为了创造一个比典型的家更少呼吸刺激物的环境。内饰包括低VOC涂料和FSC认证的橱柜。所有电器都是能源之星级。

The project utilizes high efficiency HRVs (Heat Recovery Ventilator) for air exchange and ductless mini split systems to provide heating and cooling. Hard surface flooring, cleanable walk-off mats and areas to promote shoe removal beside the entryway all seek to create an environment with fewer respiratory irritants than a typical home. Interior finishes include low VOC paints and FSC certified cabinetry. All appliances are Energy Star rated.

高效和最佳的价值工程框架策略有助于减少建设过程中的建筑浪费。低流量厕所，水龙头和淋浴头和耐旱景观尽量减少总用水量。透水铺设和场地渗透战略也有助于减轻地方市政供水系统的压力。

Efficient and optimum value engineered framing strategies helped to reduce construction waste during the build process. Low flow toilets, faucets and showerheads and drought tolerant landscaping minimize overall water consumption. Permeable paving and site infiltration strategies also help to put less strain on local municipal water systems.

Renewable energy

该项目结合了主动和被动能源战略，减少了对环境的影响。该设计包括现场太阳能光伏发电，自然日照，超级绝缘建筑围护，被动通风和现场水管理策略。每户家庭都配备了38个太阳能光伏电池板和一个太阳能热板，为房屋提供能源和热水。能源输出的目标是超过占用者的需求，剩余的将出售回电网。

The project reduces its environmental impact through a combination of active and passive energy strategies. The design incorporates onsite solar photovoltaic electricity production, natural day lighting, super insulated building envelope, passive ventilation, and site water management tactics. Each home is equipped with 38 Solar PV panels and a solar thermal panel to provide energy and hot water for the house. The energy output is targeted to exceed the demands of the occupants, with surplus to be sold back to the grid.

郁郁葱葱的景观设计使用的是新英格兰本土的植物类型，它们的维护能力和耐旱性都很低。建筑设计和景观设计的目标是同时进行上下文和现代。

The lush and verdant landscape design uses native New England plant types that are low maintenance and drought tolerant. Designs for both the architecture and landscape aim to be simultaneously contextual and contemporary.

罗克斯伯里是一个兼容并蓄的社区，有着丰富的个性和魅力。我们希望我们的项目将有助于丰富的历史和社会结构的邻居。该项目的架构引入了丰富的图案，通过包层组件和正式手势，以创造独特的纹理和视觉节奏。该地点的城市填充位置为该地区的公共交通和便利设施提供了很好的连通性。

Roxbury is an eclectic neighborhood with lots of character and charm. We hope our project will contribute to the rich history and social fabric of the neighborhood. The architecture of the project introduces rich patterning through cladding components and formal gestures to create unique textures and visual rhythms. The urban infill location of the site affords great connectivity to mass transportation and amenities in the area.

通过网站、标牌、展示和参观，一个全面的公众意识项目已经对整个社区进行了关于可持续绿色建筑战略的教育。我们希望该项目能促进教育新一代的本地绿领工人，刺激本地经济和就业机会。

A comprehensive public awareness program through website, signage, presentation and tours has educated the neighborhood at large on sustainable green building strategies. We hope the project will be a catalyst in helping to educate a new generation of local green collar workers and stimulate the local economy and job opportunities.

在该项目中的四个大约2000 SF/-乡镇住宅中，有一个是以80%AMI提供的，而其中三个是市价。目标是支持社区的混合收入性质，同时为当地居民提供住房公平。

One of the four approximately 2000 SF +/- townhomes in the project is being offered at 80% AMI, while three of the townhomes will be market rate. The goal is to support the mixed-income nature of the neighborhood while providing housing equity for local residents.
