Working closely with our Architect Client to develop the designs and obtain planning consent for the proposed scheme. Following planning consent being awarded, we commenced with the technical design process which for the live work unit, was led by the desire to create a very low energy development, adopting many Passivhaus principles including exceptional thermal performance, low air permeability and a Mechanical Vent and Heat Recovery (MVHR) system. The collaborative approach undertaken with both the clients and the various subconsultants forming the design team, ensured the complex and harmonised technical package was delivered with clarity to ensure the construction phase went smoothly.
