ZERO ENERGY DESIGN

In the face of a growing climate emergency there is a pressing need for buildings to do more than merely comply with planning regulations. 

Which is why now, in 2020, we have decided to always design buildings with a path for zero energy in use, simply because the time for anything else has run out.

​

AGILE DESIGN METHODS

In the midst of COVID19 questions are being asked about the real purpose of buildings as workplaces and what we need to change to #buildbackbetter. 

​

Agile in Buildings can help with the big thinking about how workplaces change to suit the new reality - to help users understand how space and spaces might be reconceived to optimise productivity and overheads.                                       

​

POST OCCUPANCY EVALUATION

Designing a great building is what competent designs teams aim to do.

Getting from great design to great performance in use is more difficult. To understand the gaps between design intention and in use performance we offer a complete post occupancy evaluation (POE) consultancy service so clients and facilities teams can get the most from what the design team has left them with.
