Energy efficiency is core to our approach to architecture. This project, for a family in Cambridge, involved re-ordering of a terrace house to accommodate the changing spatial needs of the client, whilst bringing an old house up to modern standards of energy efficiency.
We seamlessly introduced a heat recovery and ventilation system to remove damp stale air and provide warm fresh air throughout the house. Rainwater was harvested; this is used to as a grey water supply to flush the toilets reducing the burden on Cambridge’s over stretched water aquifer.
The project was finished off with bespoke storage units for the kitchen and living room.
Many projects have been for clients who have raised a family in their home and want to reorder the property to suite their changing needs, reduce running costs, and reduce their impact on climate change.
