Thrilled to see Hampstead #Passivhaus shortlisted for the 2026 RIBA London Awards.
A Victorian conservation-area townhouse retrofitted to certified #EnerPHit:
• ~90% cut in space heating
• 75% lower operational energy
• 58% lower whole life carbon
Heritage + deep decarbonisation at its best.

Wonderful to see that our #Hampstead #PassiveHouse project has received a Special Mention from the Camden Design Awards for exemplary sustainable design. We supported Guy Stansfeld Architecture with #Passivhaus #EnerPHit design and whole life carbon analysis. Congrats to the whole project team!
A tale of two towers... Emma Osmundsen, Chair of @passivhaustrust.bsky.social tells of a contractor delivering two housing blocks in #London. One is PH certified, the other is not... and the certified project is being delivered for less cost! Contractors now requesting #Passivhaus! #UKPHC25 #Belfast
"Sustainable building and scale building are not mutually exclusive strategies".... at the opening session of the #ukphc25 in #Belfast. Looking forward to a full day hearing about the #Passivhaus projects and strategies at the forefront of building decarbonisation.
We’ve helped deliver the NHS’s first Net Zero hospital 🎉
The new Women & Children’s Building at Countess of Chester Hospital is fully electric, low carbon, and built to the rigorous NHS Net Zero Building Standard.
Proud to have worked with IHP and partners to decarbonise the design & construction.
Our conference paper has won the Best Theme Award at the International Retrofit Conference! Co-authored with Dr. Haniyeh Mohammadpourkarbasi from @liverpooluni.bsky.social School of Architecture, we have developed a heritage retrofit methodology for decarbonising listed and historic properties.
Exciting to see vacuum glazing installed at Central Lodge, a Grade II listed building we've supported with #EnerPHit design. Our client Andy explains how the vac glass has made #Passivaus possible on his property.

📷Passivhaus tourists!
Members of the Passivhaus Trust were warmly welcomed to Warksburn Old Church in Northumberland this weekend.
The world's first #Passivhaus church conversion into holiday accommodation, the project is EnerPHit certified & achieved an airtightness test result of 0.19 ACH.
Our #Hampstead #Passivhaus project is shortlisted for the #Camden Design Awards! It's a wonderful example of the client and design/build team working together to create a truly sustainable home - sourcing reclaimed, natural, and VOC-free materials and renewable energy into this Victorian townhouse.
🔔 Brilliant to see pioneering EnerPHit church conversion Warksburn Old Church in the press with its 150th anniversary celebrations last week.
