DESIGN + DOCUMENTATION

New-home design.
Construction drawings.

We design new homes and prepare the drawings to build them. Working alongside your builder, we bring Passive Solar Design, Building Science and practical experience on site into the design from the outset.

Orientation, insulation, glazing, airtightness and ventilation need to work together. We care about getting those fundamentals right, and resolving the details with the people who will build them.

HYBRID:HOME

Passive Solar Design.
Building Science.

Hybrid:Home is how we bring those principles together. The site, the construction and the budget shape the response. We favour independent checks during the build, including blower-door testing where agreed, to check the airtightness of the completed construction.
