DESCRIPTION
On 4/12/2014, Kenya Relief & NOMA Detroit held a schematic design charette for the Kenya Relief Academy Kitchen/Cafetera project. There were three teams total. This slideshare display’s the work of Team Three.

Solution: As the site serves as an orphanage, the volunteers and staff that make up the p g , p
nurturing efforts of the Kenya Relief Organization recognize the value of the lives of these children as future leaders and builders of our global community, along with regional success.
Per suggestion of the Kenya Relief Organization, a 8‐10’ tall brick wall with barbed wire atop, will surround the perimeter campus of the proposed building site.

• Concept: Environmental sustainability was anConcept: Environmental sustainability was an important facet for the Kenya Relief project efforts, as the academy aims to create and foster leaders within in a regional and global context. The following environmental design principles learned from the Shill j t t d i l d d iShillong project case study were included in our design proposal:
Rainwater Harvesting:Rainwater Harvesting: • Monthly Rainfall averages of around 5” occur throughout the year However rainfall will not bethroughout the year. However, rainfall will not be the only resource used to supply water to the site. By actively collecting rainwater for ancillary uses likeBy actively collecting rainwater for ancillary uses like irrigation for potential gardens and graywateractivities. Gutters will line the roof perimeter channeling the rain water into an underground tank, where it will be pumped and stored into a rainwater

DaylightingDaylighting• As the school and cafeteria operates during daytime hours and use of electricity towards lighting y g gdemands is not ideal, a primary objective of the design is to use daylighting as much as possible for visual comfort and energy savings.
Natural VentilationNatural Ventilation• Kenya Relief’s climate is rather ideal for natural ventilation and its
moderate temperatures throughout the year assist in reducing the need for extensive measures in providing non‐traditional regionalneed for extensive measures in providing non traditional regional building items like insulation. A key goal for the proposed design is used to achieve thermal comfort for all end users. Our building design aims to use the warm heat spaces that our through daylighting and allow for natural ventilation through the buildingdaylighting and allow for natural ventilation through the building. In our design concept, air flow will be driven by wind‐pressure and stack ventilation, where warm air is exhausted out from higher clerestory windows. During the cooler days, when clerestory windows are shut “stratification” of warm air due to solar andwindows are shut, stratification of warm air due to solar and internal gains will be offset by heat loss from the upper roof and window area, keeping the space warm.
