New build low energy home
We were commissioned to design this new build low energy home in Harpenden, to replace a poorly built and cramped existing property. The house will feature highly insulated walls, triple glazing, solar panels and ASHP, in a fabric first approach. The house is situated within a conservation area and the design reflects the nearby Edwardian properties but in a contemporary style. With 5 bedrooms and generous living space, the house fulfills the brief set by our Client; providing much needed accommodation for their family.
A contemporary edwardian style house
Decorative herringbone brickwork add character and depth to the facade. The house offers a pleasing double fronted gable elevation that is reminiscent of the nearby Edwardian houses. The house works with the natural topography of the land and is sunken down from street level, just like the existing house.
