With current resources shortages and environmental destruction,one of the important methods in building energy saving is to develop passive design and technologies. "E-concave",which is one of the entries in the Solar Decathlon 2013,has the core concepts of"Saving",Comfort","Unitization"and"Technology"and brings passive strategies( layout,insulation,daylighting,ventilation,material,etc.) into the design.
