INDOOR OUTDOOR LIVING

Glass Box Continuity illusions

100% glass extensions give a false illusion of continuity between inside and out
You live in your neighbour’s goldfish bowl and probably feel exposed and object to overlooking
Big sliding/folding glass doors open whole room to garden and let weather, intruders, spores, insects and wildlife into house
Big sliding/folding insect screens are needed to keep nature out
Flush thresholds and same paving inside and out give wheel access, an illusion of continuous space, challenging material choices and rainwater drainage
You might want and need some wind protection and solar shading or you will need air-conditioning at great expense of energy and carbon to you and planet

Conservatories

Most PVC glazed conservatories have no opening windows in vertical and sloping planes so overheat in summer and are cold in winter
80% of UK Conservatories are heated with fossil fuels and many used all year round
Building Regulations require closable doors/windows between house and conservatory to minimise squandering heat
Many homes have no doors or windows between conservatory and house so heating house is expensive
PVC sector continuation and job creation scheme is to add insulating panels to roofs of overheating conservatories
If panels contain plastic or mineral fibre they will still overheat in summer

Case Study: HHP Hockerton Housing Project

Terraced housing with gardens and solar space on south elevation across full width of houses
An indoor-outdoor extra living or working space for DIY repairs, crafts, art, tinkering, clothes drying
Solar shading is needed to glazed solar space ideally externally but can work if internally
solar space is ventilated in vertical and pitched planes, so it is usable in summer
Solar spaces are heated by sun not fossil fuel, surrounded by thermal mass it stays warm for longer in winter
If there is no sun you retreat into warm cave, a high thermal mass home beyond

Outdoor furniture

Outdoor furniture needs to be weather tolerant or be covered or stored to protect it from deterioration
Plant based furniture and plastics need to be ultra-violate (UV) light resistant to prevent them becoming brittle and break
Plastics can also be faded by UV light, fading is an excuse for throwing out unsightly furniture
Choose pale grey or white plastic outdoor furniture so fading is less of a risk

24 Sustainable Development Goals

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity.
The 17 SDGs are integrated—they recognize that action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability.
Countries have committed to prioritize progress for those who’re furthest behind. The SDGs are designed to end poverty, hunger, AIDS, and discrimination against women and girls.
The creativity, knowhow, technology and financial resources from all of society is necessary to achieve the SDGs in every context.
