摘要

In the United States, the elimination of operable windows is one of the greatest losses in contemporary architecture. Despite the increased transparency of the building envelope, our architecture is increasingly impermeable and disconnected from the world in which we live. Yet. this trend is not shared throughout the world. In Europe natural ventilation (and subsequently operable windows) has been rediscovered as one of several viable solutions to problems with indoor air quality. In contrast, many designers in the U.S. have increasingly turned to "mechanical solutions" to solve the same problems. Despite European trends toward natural ventilation, operable windows become the exception, rather than the norm, in contemporary architecture in the United States. There are complex challenges for window design if one is to balance energy. IAQ. comfort, and occupant control. This is particularly true in cold climates, where energy efficiency has lead to extremely tight building envelopes and a subsequently higher risk of problems related to indoor air quality. Yet. is it possible in cold climates to use a "hybrid" solution that combines mechanical and natural ventilation during the cooling period? If so. how. when, and where can this be done? Interviews were conducted with leading designers, engineers, and building researchers in Minnesota to understand the breadth of design issues and related "costs" of operable windows in cold climates. The findings of the study are organized into seven critical design issues that emerged from the interviews: 1) priorities and values, 2) definition of comfort. 3) myths of mechanical ventilation control. 4) liability. 5) economics and energy. 6) precedents, and 7) design opportunities. This paper considers possible opportunities, challenges, and solutions to the design of operable windows in contemporary architectural design. While the challenges are real, and at times daunting, contemporary design can include operable This fine April afternoon, as garden bulbs push their way out from under the winter months, a cool spring breeze blows through the room. Reconnected to the outside, my cats climb in and out of the open windows, barely able to contain themselves over the excitement of their newly discovered world. I throw my house open to spring, knowing that these beautiful days are precious and few in Minnesota. Throughout the city we're celebrating and relishing the return of the sun and the coming days of summer. On a day such as this. I wonder how it came to be that operable windows are the exception, rather than the norm, in commercial and institutional buildings throughout Minnesota.
