We’re bringing sustainability to the fore
We’re currently working on three projects with strong sustainable credentials, backed up by clients and collaborators who really believe in what we’re doing. Our eco retrofit of a 1920s house in Loughborough is in detailed design, following a rigorous home energy masterplan set out by Hockerton Housing Project team. We are applying the PassivHaus Planning Package to the design of a new house in a village Conservation Area. And nearing completion is the conversion of a Victorian garage in Nottingham into a cosy, low energy, double-height living space.

We’re continuing to work with artists and arts organisations
Our collaborations with artists are starting to become a regular feature. In addition to 2hD’s shortlisting in the Structures on the Edge competition with Tristan Hessing, we completed The Lost Cuckoo project with Marcus Rowlands for the Nottingham International Children’s Festival in June. We have also continued to work with The Mighty Creatives, most recently working with the staff and residents at a children’s home to redesign and rebuild their living space. Soon we hope to be able to report on some interesting discussions with Qubo Gas. Please watch this space…
