"Una villa sulla neve  che non sente freddo" by Enrico Morelli (Direttore di Edizioni Morelli)
Entrare in una casa passiva č come vivere in una casa ovattata, dove l’aria č pura e stabile, la luce morbida e confortevole. E’ questa la sensazione che ho avuto entrando nella villa dell’architetto Arthur Pichler, in val di Vizze, con un panorama fantastico su Vipiteno e sulle Alpi della Val d’ Isarco che sfiorano i 3 mila metri. Dai 12 gradi della temperatura esterna sono entrato nella zona living dove i gradi erano 24, la signora Pichler era intenta a sistemare la cucina open space e il papą dell’architetto giocava con i due nipotini. In casa Pichler infatti vivono tre generazioni. I genitori abitano al secondo piano e hanno a disposizione un terrazzo panoramico sulla valle, la famiglia  dell’architetto dispone del piano terra (dove cč il soggiorno con la cucina comunicante), un office dove c’č uno studiolo ma anche una batteria per suonare e una sauna, che funge pure da bagno turco. Il living rassomiglia un loft ed č attraversato da travi che in futuro potrebbero costituire la base per nuove stanze per i figli e da una tubazione da cui esce l’aria ventilata. Non esistono nč termosifoni, nč serpentine, nč tanto meno pannelli fotovoltaici. Soltanto l’aria ventilata e filtrata entra nell’edificio e puņ essere riscaldata quando la temperatura esterna č molto fredda. E a Vipiteno puņ scendere a meno venti gradi.  Il riscaldamento dell’aria, come anche dell’acqua calda, viene effettuato mediante una caldaia a pellet....

"Casa Pichler" – Prima Casa passiva PHI certificata in Alto Adige – Casa clima Gold A+; situata a Vipiteno

The „Gold-climate-house/passive-house Pichler" lies in the municipality of Pfitsch (BZ-Italy), designed by Arch. Dr. MSc. Arthur Pichler and Arch. Dr. Walter Colombi. The requirements of the client concerned living-without-barriers, sustainability, low-energy-consumption, privacy and enjoying the wonderful view. The accessibility to all three floors could be achieved by the inclination of the slope: The single flat (upper floor) has an own entrance and a covered parking-bay; the duplex flat underneath it has an own entrance with garage in the upper floor, the access to garden and cellar in the lower floor. The adjustment towards south permits planned solar-energy profit and necessary protection from the cold north-wind. The entire extention of both floors of the Duplex flat is visible from outside through glass facades which serve, in the winter, as a "solar-stove". The private sphere between the two living units is guaranteed by a balustrade. This barrier serves also as a flowerbox, rain protection, venetian blinds and active rainwater container. It’s geometry allows maximum solar radiation and prevents the formation of shadows on the glass elements. Furthermore, this geometric element creates an important proportioning of the architecture in the landscape. The heating and ventilating system with heat recovery stands in constant interplay with the thermal cover and delivers warmth without any additional energy sources (heater, geothermal-energy, solar-collectors, …). Only in rare special cases the wood pellets burner for the hot-water processing, should support the heat exchanger of the ventilation system. Therefore, and also by the application of well-chosen materials and thermal-insulating, the client was able to save a sensible amount of money. The ventilation under the frame-house is also innovative to guarantee its dryness in the earth-zone. The loft area serves as an important living space for the client and is adaptable for other needs. The green roof is sustainable, since it supports cooling in summer, heat insulation in winter and it serves as a rainwater storage.
