Passivhaus

We spend a significant proportion of our lives indoors. So it's essential that we live in homes that nurture our physical and mental health.

This month we have chosen our favourite Passivhauses from other design studios.

Passivhaus needn’t cost significantly more than a house built to building regulations if you plan this from the start.

We're thrilled that our project Sort Trae, has been shortlisted for a prestigious RIBA Yorkshire Award.

EnerPHit is the gold standard set for exisiting homes to achieve a high level of thermal performance.

We explore what the fabric first approach means for your costs, comfort & health in the long term

We look at benefits of using the Passivhaus overlay with the RIBA plan of work to create a comfortable and energy efficient home.
