Description

We offer a full architectural service for energy-smart buildings, taking projects from concept to completion.  Our speciality is sustainable, low-energy design, and we use a variety of design principles and green technologies to create spaces which are high on wellbeing and low on carbon and utility costs. Optimised orientation and layout, extensive double glazing, super air-tight fabric, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, hemp-fibre insulation, CLT timber-frames, plant-based paints, green roofs, rainwater harvesting, light wells, biomass boilers, local natural materials and solar power are just some of the green features we have extensive experience with.  We are based in Brighton & Hove, UK, and work on both residential and commercial projects throughout the South-East of England.  Energy-efficiency is hugely beneficial to homes and workplaces due to the reduced running costs, enhanced property value and more comfortable indoor environment. Use of natural materials, daylighting and good ventilation improve health and wellbeing, and also productivity - especially useful for commercial premises. Our experienced and friendly team will take you through the whole design and build process, starting with a no-strings consultation with our director and senior architect, Mark Pellant. The full architectural service includes everything from your initial idea to move-in: Feasibility studies Concept designs Building control submissions Technical designs Planning applications Management of building contractors Evaluations  Alternatively, if preferred we can also provide our services for just one or two of the project stages rather than the whole process.  If you're looking for a unique energy-smart home or business premises, get in touch today to discuss how we can help you.
