Sustainability

We seek to minimise the adverse effects on the environment of all buildings which we design, whilst promoting healthy indoor conditions for occupants.

Environmental improvement and awareness is a by-product of quality design and is considered at the earliest stages of our process.

Global Issues:
	Green House Gases
	Sustainable Timber Resources
	Recycled Demolition Materials

Microclimate:
	Local wind effects
	Minimum impact on surrounding residential buildings
	Over-shadowing other buildings & land
	Water economy
	Ecological Value of the site

Indoor Issues:
	Ventilation, passive heating & cooling
	Hazardous materials
	Lighting
	Thermal Comfort from solar gain & over-heating
	Indoor Noise Levels

Our approach to 'Sustainable Projects' is focused by following the published guidance documents and by holding regular audits of the design proposals.
This procedure enables significant benefits to be gained in the project's long-term environmental impact, as well as an improved comfort level for all occupants.

Formal submissions for a BREEAM rating can also be administered by our qualified staff, if required.
