Rezoning monastery visitation Kraainem
Together with Anno Architecten and Lime engineering (stability), Ingenium was in charge of the design of the techniques within the framework of the redevelopment assignment of the Kraainem Monastery.
Paying attention to the historically valuable parts in the monastery of the early 20th century (after the hand of Dom Bellot), the following items are housed in the monastery:
- Restaurant
- Residence spaces (cohousing, apartments)
- Crèche
- Workshops and therapy rooms
- Multi-purpose chapel
- Practice rooms and delivery wing (next phase)
The importance of sustainability for the clients Mr. and Mrs. Querton was investigated in an energetic feasibility study, respecting the heritage.
The technical installations are completely renewed except for the existing gas boilers (as backup) and some cast iron radiators.
A selection of the sustainable techniques in the design:
- Air/water heat pump
- PV system integrated on a historic monument
- Solar water heating system
- LT heating
- Passive cooling via air groups
The latest techniques are integrated but with particular attention to the aesthetic context of the monastery.
For example, bakelite switchgear, custom-made fixtures,...
