西蒙菲莎大學(xué)冬奧會(huì)之際 揭開(kāi)West House神秘面紗

體驗(yàn)溫哥華冬奧會(huì)的20多萬(wàn)觀眾近日都有望到西蒙菲莎大學(xué)參觀WEST HOUSE―著名的現(xiàn)代化可持續(xù)發(fā)之家，West House位于Livecity的Yaletown，是一座綠色環(huán)保建筑，崇尚清潔能源和智能居家控制技術(shù)。 

這所56.7平米的房子創(chuàng)作藍(lán)本源于西蒙菲莎大學(xué)互動(dòng)多媒體學(xué)院的的兩位頂級(jí)教授Lyn Bartram和Woodbury。達(dá)到了名副其實(shí)的節(jié)能環(huán)保（所創(chuàng)造的能量遠(yuǎn)多于其所消耗的），由起居室、餐廳、廚房、盥洗室及Loft式臥室以及小陽(yáng)臺(tái)組成，另有用以電瓶車存放的21平米的車庫(kù)。

西蒙菲莎大學(xué)的研究學(xué)者們締造了革新的數(shù)據(jù)轉(zhuǎn)碼界面和展示系統(tǒng)“適應(yīng)性居住界面系統(tǒng)ALIS”，旨在幫助房主切實(shí)的實(shí)現(xiàn)能源轉(zhuǎn)化，而非當(dāng)下并不被鼓勵(lì)的能源控制。 

SFU unveils innovative West House at Olympics

February 11, 2010 

More than 200,000 people during the Winter Olympics in Vancouver are expected to tour Simon Fraser University’s West House, a model sustainable home at LiveCity in Yaletown featuring the latest in green-building, clean-energy and smart-home control technologies.

The 56.7-square-metre (610 sq. ft.) prototype “l(fā)aneway house” is the inspiration of Lyn Bartram and Rob Woodbury, both professors in SFU’s School of Interactive Arts and Technology (SIAT).
The energy-efficient house, which produces more energy than it uses, features a combined living/dining/kitchen area, bathroom and loft bedroom with small balcony. The attached 21-square-metre (226 sq. ft.) garage comes complete with an electric-car charging outlet.

"Laneway houses have a smaller ecological footprint and greater energy efficiency than regular single-family homes, says Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson, who officially opened West House on Feb. 10 along with federal Treasury Board president Stockwell Day.

Since the city approved laneway houses in 2009 as a means of densifying some 66,000 single-family lots with compact housing, it has granted 21 building permits and has 50 more pending approval.

SFU researchers created the innovative intelligent data interface and display system called Adaptive Living Interface System (ALIS). Its purpose, explains Bartram, is to help the homeowner actually practice energy conservation, which current energy-control interfaces don’t encourage.
