Abstract

Located in the town of La Herrería (Fuente Palmera, Cordoba, Spain). Spain), the house is characterized by an architecture committed to the environment, reflected both in the design and in the "eco-efficient" construction solutions adopted: ventilated facade, sanitary wrought, natural ventilation and lighting, hydronic air conditioning system, photovoltaic solar panels for self-consumption and a photocatalytic mortar for the interior and exterior cladding that will be able to decontaminate the air surrounding the house and in turn offer an impeccable finish, without the need for periodic maintenance. This is a prototype NZEB Nearly Zero Energy Building under a contract art 68/86 L.O.U. through the Research Foundation of the University of Seville. This type of housing, which supports regenerative sustainability, minimizes the environmental impact derived from excessive energy consumption and reduces CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, is today not only a reality, but a general trend in the sector.
