Sustainability Picture

Our approach to sustainability is multi- disciplinary:

  • Producing sustainability masterplans, microclimate and massing analyses
  • Optimising efficiency in the use of HVAC systems and energy
  • Simulating daylighting, fluid dynamics and thermal performance
  • Carrying out renewable energy feasibility studies and GLA toolkit studies
  • Formulating sustainability strategies
  • Evaluating environmental and economic impacts of energy systems
  • Designing systems using renewable energy technologies
  • Co-operating with national/international agencies and universities on research
  • Providing environmental and energy efficiency certification including BREEAM, Eco Homes and SAP/NHER

Through our activities we aim to further the understanding and wide-scale application of integrated low energy systems within the built environment.
We promote all aspects of sustainable development and urban renewal.
