The building is the object of intervention is a property of the sixties located in the terminal portion to the south of the historic center of the city of Isernia.
The design is born from the attempt to restructure the existing building, creating structural and energy improvement in order to increase the supply of early childhood services and accommodate the new function of kindergarten.
In the context of the sustainability of interventions to improve energy efficiency, with the goal to change the external appearance of the building, improving both the energy performance, giving place to a building to be nearly zero-energy, both the aesthetic appearance, making a general reorganization of colours and finishes.
For construction units constituting the bodies of the functional of the center have been designed with adequate staging systems, are suitable for their best operation and full performance of their specific duties.
There is a water and sanitation and sewage, a heating system, an electric system and a security system and fire-fighting.
In relation to the efficiency of the heating system, has been chosen as a heating system, direct expansion type VRF system and a replacement of the air.
For the heating and the cooling of the environment you have chosen a system VRF that allows you to lower the temperature of the flow, break free from the gas supply, reducing CO2 emissions and take advantage of the bivalence of the heat pump providing cooling.
The system has been designed with a building automation system that allows you to monitor the
consumption and to adjust the temperatures in the various environments.
The demand of hot water is ensured by two water heaters, heat pump located in the two environments for the toilet.
It was expected, that is integrated with the heating-cooling, a system of controlled mechanical ventilation can be “clean” constantly in the air, and the related negative factors, is to ensure the thermal comfort and comfort humidity of children and adults.
There is, moreover, the realization of a photovoltaic system composed of n. 860 photo-voltaic roof tiles installed on the slopes of the south-east and south-west.
The distribution of the spaces has been articulated in such a way as to have a ground floor space of the entrance and acceptance, a environment for the game room/living room, a environment for dining, one for rest and one space for the hygiene, while the first floor will be put in the spaces for staff and the general services such as toilets, dressing room closet for staff, storage areas, furniture and material use, the pantry to kids ' meals, laundry, lunch for adults, office and storage facilities.
The entrance is the first impact of the service on the part of children and parents and it is important that it is designed to express the identity and to convey a sense of welcome and belonging.
The environment of the game, and the living room, thanks to the help of furniture and equipment, provides areas for individual and collective spaces, respecting, with consistency of design, the needs of both the subjective and the progressive involvement of the group.
The environment for the rest provides an adequate darkening, is acoustically protected and allows the easy preparation of cots and beds; it is an intimate, comfortable and reassuring where you can relax and feel a secure sense of well-being.
The environment in which the children eat is as important as the quality of the food they eat. Most of the time dedicated to the dining area has a strong cultural and social. The space, the quality of the mode of consumption of the meal condition, in fact, the child's relationship with food. For these reasons, the environment of the dining room needs to lose the characteristics of a simple table, to distinguish itself as a place that is strongly characterized and specialized, nice and pleasant.
The environment for the hygiene, compared to all the other spaces, and a major boundary and allows free and easy access by children and control on the part of the adult.
The nest is a place of daily life, where the measure of the welfare of each is given by the quality of the social climate. It follows that the space has to be enjoyable for adults and, therefore, must include the following elements in furniture, and in the scan of the space that meet the specific needs of adults.
