1 Editorial
«smart sharing – our vision is your+»
The future of our built environment needs a positive
rethink in terms of use and habits with respect to
individual approaches to life. We create opportunities
with a «smart sharing base» for the distribution of
services, space, objects, devices, mobility, energy
and individual gadgets in future housing. Sharing
provides more possibilities not only for flexible, but
also individual living. Furthermore resources can
be saved by optimizing their utilization. Sharing
is organized in terms of urban and living space,
transportation and personal needs in daily use.
In this way, your+ improves the quality of life and
creates an added value for everyone.
Although energy efficiency is continuously improving
in the field of construction in Switzerland, the overall
energy balance remains poor. The reason for this is
the growing population and constantly emerging
requirements, especially ever-increasing living-space
demand per person, which already stands at an
average of 45 m2 today. So our vision addresses
current challenges: population growth, increased
land use and the burden on resources and the
environment. Our idea of «smart sharing» is aimed at
easing the burden on resources and using space in a
more efficient and sustainable way. Our vision
cleverly shares rooms and creates a «smart sharing
base» for exchanging objects and services, as well
as using mobility in a flexible way. The principle of
the cooperative, which has been firmly anchored in
Swiss culture for centuries, serves us as our
conceptual basis and focuses on the principle of
common wellbeing.
For urban planning implementation, we chose the
exemplary location of a heterogeneous quarter in
Lucerne with an ideal infrastructure. The concrete
site in Lucerne provides insight into local and cultural
aspects of implementing the general idea of «smart
sharing».
4
Our new replacement construction plans four
different buildings that densify and network the
surroundings in a complementary way.
Our project has three types of rooms, each with
different uses.
my room – the private bedroom with bathroom as
an individual retreat for one or two people.
our room – the kitchen shared with the my
room-neighbours, depending on the target group and
living situation, e.g. family (private), shared apartment (communal), commuters (no kitchen).
your room – the communal shared space with
specific use, e.g. guest room, music room or a
studio. It is public for all members of the cooperative
– since everyone is able to rent it according to his/
her requirements. That creates added value such as
efficient use of space, social synergies, flexible use
potential and low overall rent costs.
The three different room types are connected by the
space+ as an access and communal area for living,
staying and working. It is a public meeting area from
the ground floor to the rooftop terrace.
From that urban planning context, we present one
example of each room type and developed them in
our prototype for the competition in Versailles. We
want to demonstrate the structural, social and
technical levels with various communication
elements and present our vision:
«smart sharing» – of space, objects, energy,
services and mobility – is our innovative, sustainable idea: «smart sharing – our vision is your+».

2 The Solar Decathlon Europe 2014 in
Versailles
General
The internationally renowned «Solar Decathlon»
competition, which was initiated by the US Energy
Department, has been held biannually since 2003 in
the USA and since 2010 has also alternated with
venues in Europe. Next year, it will be held in France
for the first time and will also have the first Swiss
team participating. The competition is aimed at
multidisciplinary teams from universities with the
task of developing an architecturally and technically
innovative, energy-efficient solar-powered house
integrated in future living concepts. A total of 20
teams have qualified for the event in the summer of
2014 – from countries including Germany, Denmark,
France, Spain, Chile, India, Japan and the USA. They
will build their houses in Versailles, open them to the
general public and compete against each other in
the ten contests of the Solar Decathlon.
As the name «Decathlon» indicates, in July 2014, the
international teams will be competing in the
following ten contests: Architecture; Engineering and
Construction; Energy Efficiency; Electrical Energy
Balance; Comfort Conditions; House Functioning;
Communication and Social Awareness; Urban
Design, Transport and Affordability; Innovation;
Sustainability.

In reference to the term Decathlon in the name Solar
Decathlon, the competition is separated into ten
disciplines. In each of the ten disciplines between 80
and 120 points are reached, a maximum of 1000
points are possible. Criteria such as sustainability,
communication and architecture will be evaluated by
the jury of experts, while others are determined by
measurements.

3 Our Vision
«smart sharing – our vision is your+»
Our vision aims to create and build a base for «smart
sharing» . This base offers ways of saving resources
while also improving quality of life. Ideal utilization
achieves added value for everyone. The principle of a
cooperative, which has a long tradition in Switzerland, serves as a basis for this vision. We apply the
cooperative idea of sharing consumer goods to the
way rooms are used. Initial situation: Although and
because different social groups have different daily
routines, requirements and demands, rooms are
often empty. The solution: By optimizing the way we
use rooms, we save resources and space while also
improving quality of life.
Current Challenges
We want our vision to actively address current
challenges such as a growing population, increased
land use and the burden on resources and the
environment. Today’s society consumes natural
resources faster than they regenerate. In addition to
consumer goods and mobility requirements, the way
we use space is an important factor. In Switzerland,
residential living space requirements have risen from
35 m2 per person in 1980 to 45 m2 today. Nevertheless, the population is not willing to reduce levels of
comfort or consumption, neutralising every
efficiency increase with further additional consumption. Our vision of «smart sharing» therefore seeks a
different, sustainable future. We also address a
social level: We create social synergies through
exchange, trust and integration, combined with
responsibility and identification with the idea. All this
can be managed by the your+ platform.
A hundred years ago Switzerland had a population of
about 4 million inhabitants. Nobody owned more
than a house and a bicycle. Today in 2014, the
population has doubled and individuals not only have
a house and a bicycle but also a car, a guest room
often more. In reality we use significantly more
resources than we need, and due to an increasing
population we will consume more in the future if we
don’t change our lifestyle. By utilizing a concept of
«smart sharing», we can save resources without
reducing our standard of living. Today, we use an
average of 45 m2 and live alone or as a pair in a 2-3
room apartment. That isn’t just inefficient, it also
burdens the resource of land. With our idea, the
your + concept of «smart sharing», we achieve a
utilization of just 35 m2 per person, instead of the
usual 45, while not only maintaining the standard of
living, but raising it.
Our idea of «smart sharing» not only creates a
communal platform, but also added value.
«smart sharing» means implementing the key
issues of sustainability.

Urban Design Concept
The contextual focus of the Solar Decathlon lies in
urban areas. The urban planning development in
Lucerne reveals several dynamic residential and
business areas around a strong core and old-town
zone.
We are planning an exemplary development in
Industriestrasse in Lucerne to implement our vision
of a new concept that is nevertheless anchored in
tradition. It is a central urban area with great
potential for urban density, in which current themes
could be addressed in an exemplary way. Industriestrasse is characterized by its proximity to Lucerne
train station and Lake Lucerne, a local recreation
zone. It is also a lively area, which already has a
diverse user group in a mixed socio-cultural context
and is a perfect basis to create our vision.
Using the concept of «smart sharing», we plan our
project within this existing development because the
characteristics are similar to many other urban
situations in Switzerland and the world. We believe
this quarter provides ideal conditions, since it is central and lively and already has a great variety.
Our replacement development involves four different
buildings that complement, densify and network
their surroundings.

In addition to social aspects, we also integrate the
development into the environment on an ecological
and energy level.
The urban context provides the networking of energy
potentials to generate the possibility of energy in
urban areas. Its excellent location also allows the
building to provide for several households. Utilizing a
smart grid, entire complexes and neighbourhoods
are connected with energy technology, which can
help meet their needs for heating and cooling
efficiently.

The transition from the conceptual context to the
prototype occurs through the vision of the «smart
sharing base». It is deliberately not built 1:1 in the
way the building concept would be built. The
prototype conveys a vision of a lifestyle and not a
single-family dwelling. The prototype is presented
as an example of our new spatial usage concept. So
each of the three room types is built once and
connected by the space +.
Ro
We have developed three different room types for
the basic principle of «smart sharing»:
my room = as a bedroom and bathroom, i.e. my very
private area that I alone «own» and use.
our room = the kitchen and dining area that one
shares with other people depending on the living
situation. For instance each family has its own
private kitchen, a shared apartment shares a kitchen
and commuters have no kitchen at all.
your room = a room for specific use, which can be
for performances or guests, a library or a music
room, as well as e.g. a playing room for children. It is
therefore a room that is shared communally. It
should also be possible for individuals to hire and
use such rooms when they are needed, e.g. as
offices and studios.
These three different room types are connected and
accessed by the space+, which also serves as a communal and meeting area. It stretches over the entire
ground floor and the rooftop area, on which we have
planned a rooftop terrace covered with PV modules.

your Added Value
Different users and residents that create a broad
diversity increase their options through a cycle of
«smart sharing». Offers of sharing can reduce spatial
and mobility requirements, thereby preserving
resources and simplifying problems related to
ownership. People of different ages and status are
offered an individual life within a shared environment. That creates a surplus for a heterogeneous
community that saves resources by sharing them
and benefits from an innovative lifestyle. In the
future, ideal access to desirable things such as
rooms, objects, services, mobility and energy will be
very important.
Using a «smart sharing base», we activate that
notion of ideal access in our project your +. An entire
network spans across society, contributing to more
efficient energy use to conserve resources and
achieve a surplus in terms of living together. Our
understanding of self-sufficiency is therefore
demonstrated within a «smart sharing base». With
your + we seek a solution for one location first, but
with our eyes on the goal of global impact.
and everyone gives, everyone is networked with each
other. The lifestyle focuses on using instead of
owning and we provide the general conditions. In the
community, anything is possible if space permits.
The focus is on people, not money – objects, energy,
shared spaces and experiences.
Besides changing our energy supply to renewable
sources, an important factor for a sustainable future
is to use non-renewable resources as efficiently as
possible. With our concept, we trigger identification
with the idea of a self-sufficient lifestyle.

Architectural Design Concept
In our prototype for the competition in Versailles, we
present three exemplary room types from our urban
planning concept. We have three different room
types. my room is the most intimate, which I only
use myself. our room is the kitchen and dining area,
which I share depending on the target group and life
situation. your room is a room with a specific use,
for example a music room, a library or a guest room.
So this room is a common room that I share with the
community. It‘s also possible to rent this room for
my own and use it as an office or studio. The three
rooms thereby represent the different levels of
privacy and the way they can be used independently
according to the residents’ require¬ments. space+
serves as a communicative connecting element that
links all rooms and building sections together. It also
provides an additional gathering space for living and
working.
Our three room types can be combined in any way
using the space+ module to create a wide range of
everyday scenarios. Such combinations and use
overlapping are supported by flexible furnishing and
a lighting concept that is installed in a targeted way.
Different materials and colour tones are used to
distinguish the three rooms. That gives each room
its own identity. The built section does not represent
an independent apartment, but instead communicates the idea of our living model, since the prototype
is exemplary for an urban, multi-storey residential
typology.
The architectural expression of the prototype is
oriented by and reinterprets the Swiss timber
construction tradition, leaving space for contextual
further developments in view of the urban situation.
Silver fir is used as timber for the prototype’s
construction and the exterior facade. Natural
treatment methods and the separation of different
elements ensure that worn out sections can be
easily exchanged and replaced.
«smart sharing» means the combination and use of
the potential of an urban context with local cultural
identities.

The prototype represents our philosophy, an
example of the sharing concept as a built vision,
providing insight into our system and the Lucerne
context. For our your+ prototype concept we select
three different room types and connect them for the
Solar Decathlon prototype. These three rooms are
presented as an independent volume that is
combined with the space+.
Grades of Publicity
It contains the three most important rooms – a common room, your room with flexible use, a semi-public
room with a kitchen, called our room, and a private
bedroom area with washing facilities, my room.
The three cubes of the prototype show varying
grades of shared and private areas connected by the
space+. The common sharing room is multifunctional and relates to the outdoor area, while the kitchen
cube is semi-private. The third, completely private
cube includes the bathroom and bedroom. The
space+ is a meeting zone and provides access to the
cubes. It has an important social meaning.
Technical Aspects
Highly efficient photovoltaic modules on the
rooftops ensure the prototype’s power supply.
Excess electricity is supplied to the grid and the visitors. The building technology is interconnected and
automatically responds to changes in the weather.
Functionality of the space+
The space+ is a connecting element that assumes
several roles. It is an accessing and meeting area
and therefore has an important social status. The
accessing area structures the different levels of
privacy, organizes the uses and is formulated for
communal life. In addition to social aspects, the
space+ provides passive benefits, because it is
insulated, rather than air-conditioned. Depending on
the time of year, it regulates the interior climate with
passive measures and increases the daylight yield.
Through the natural ventilation in the summer and
the heat through the skylights in winter, it can be
used almost throughout the year. Surplus energy is
made available to visitors in accordance with our
philosophy.
Flexibility
The cubes can be connected in a variety of ways.
Thus various spatial situations and expansions are
generated. Differently prioritized corridors indicate
the relevant character of the subsequent rooms.
Those transitions between the individual cubes are
formulated to create switchable zones that can be
allocated to one or other cube depending on the
users’ requirements. Such flexible use is supported
by multifunctional furniture.

With respect to the architecture, the energy-consuming areas will also be flexible in terms of a zone
demand control. There are two different types of
spatial energy management (comfort and stand-by),
which react quickly because of the air source heat
pump. No energy is required to support the
self-sufficient rooms that are not in use.
15
Engineering & Construction Concept
Our main focus of sharing and exchanging, as well
as integrating Swiss craftsmanship into the project,
can also be seen in the construction elements and
the components of the energy systems.
The wooden building is based on a simple post construction which is arranged in a vertical facade
structure. Because of the short setting up time the
cubes are split in modules and elements depends on
their height. The three levels of the prototype are
divided into the platform, the three cubes including
the space+, and the roof structure on the top. These
elements can be found in our project. In our energy
concept the systems are based on the idea of
sharing. The rooms in the prototype are connected
and all the required energy can be transferred in
between. Each room has its own heating and cooling
energy demand, therefore the system can be
adjusted to requirements and only uses as little
energy as needed. In addition to thermal conditions,
good air quality is also an important part of a
pleasant room climate. Decentralised ventilation
devices provide each room with fresh air requirements. Thermal solar collectors provide warm water
to the building throughout the year for heating and
domestic hot water. The plumbing system integrates
various resource-saving concepts and components.
The reuse of grey and rain water reduces fresh water
consumption. Reducing water consumption eases
the burden on the sewage system and wastewater
treatment. To reduce input peaks from the PV
system, the surplus energy is temporarily stored in
the batteries. The project uses this energy store for
various tasks in the building system and for mobility.
In addition to the important tasks of the electrical
concept, it also plays an important role with respect
to mobility. The charged batteries can be used for
e-bikes to make cycling easier.
The your+ prototype is based on a standard wood
frame construction. A precise grid order of the
structural elements is consistently translated in the
facade as well as the open ceiling of the space+. The
structural design is a formative element of the
prototype. Because of the short setting-up time the
cubes are split into modules and elements. my
room and our room are built up and transported as
volume modules, while your room is transported as
ceiling and wall elements due to limited transportation height. The glass roof and floor of the space+, the
entrance doors and the steel roof are transported in
single elements.

4 Lucerne University of Applied
Sciences and Arts
The Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts
is one of seven publicly funded Universities of
Applied Sciences in Switzerland that were founded
on January 1, 1997. Today, five departments or
schools make up the Lucerne University of Applied
Sciences and Arts, comprising different campuses
located in, or close to, the City of Lucerne. These
departments are: the School of Engineering and
Architecture, the School of Business, the School of
Social Work, the School of Art and Design and the
School of Music.
An interdisciplinary design and construction process
is essential to successfully develop a project like the
Solar Decathlon. The University of Applied Sciences
and Arts – Engineering & Architecture can build on
its excellent cooperation in teaching and research
and benefit from many years of experience. The
different faculties in the Engineering & Architecture
Department have a proximity both in terms of their
location and their content, and have been working
together for years on various teaching and research
projects. Not only projects such as «New Spirit»,
«Peak Lab» and the «Monte Rosa Hut» (in cooperation with the ETHZ and the EMPA) have a flagship
character.
The curriculum also includes interdisciplinary
workshops and teaching modules as fixed elements.
Students from the fields of architecture, interior
design, structural engineering and building engineering will spend three semesters working in the core
team of the Solar Decathlon studio. They are
integrated both into the Bachelor and Master
courses and into the curriculum, project modules
and diploma courses (BDA). In the extended team,
students from other departments and faculties will
take over specific tasks. Workshop discussions
involve the active participation of partners from the
economy and industry, as well as other institutions.

5 Working Process
Spring Semester 2013: Vision
The design process was divided into three phases:
First Phase
We initially worked on developing a vision for a
context, a mobility strategy and solutions for urban
density. To achieve a wide range of ideas, we worked
in five groups. Each group worked on different ideas
and concepts regarding the issue of urban density.
Ideas for technology elements, solar usage, energy
efficiency and energy storage were already complete
by this stage. Three of these five groups were
selected to carry on and focus on their concepts.
Second Phase
The three concepts developed their projects further
and broke down the conceived concept from urbanscale dimensions to a prototype. This prototype had
to tell the story of the context and its concept.
Third Phase
In this phase we decided which concept would represent Switzerland in Versailles. All the groups joined
together to work as one team with one project.
Autumn Semester 2013: Detailed
Design / Construction Phase
In mid-September 2013 our team grew and we
organized ourselves in a new structural system
based on departments and contest sections.
Between September and November we had our
redesign phase where we worked on intensive
optimization and spatial design.
The concept and project from the third phase was
First ideas of the concept of your+

adopted and developed further. Since then, we have
been working on detailed work drawings using the
internal exchange of ideas and also by addressing
external critiques. Intense weeks revising the
working drawing resulted from the cooperation with
the wood construction company Renggli Holzbau.
We were able to successfully hand in our plans to
our partners just before Christmas. Since the
beginning of the current year the plans have become
even more detailed. At the same time we prepared a
booth for the Swissbau Basel construction
exhibition. That also manifested itself in our
concluding presentation to the public.
Spring Semester 2014: Construction
Phase / Realisation
We started the new semester with a one-week
workshop in mid-February. The topic of that
workshop was an introduction into construction site
safety and construction hardware at a wood
construction company, to kick off our implementation phase. During the evenings a communication
workshop also took place, leaving enough time to
get to know the new group members at a dinner
organized by us students.
For about 4 weeks we have finally started building
our prototype next to our university for the testing
phase. We have really been looking forward to this
period. Every day now some students are working on
the construction site, while others are still working
on theoretic aspects and deliverables. It is a really
exciting time and we are curious about our finished
your+ prototype.
