SO, WHAT IS BUILT-IN SUSTAINABILITY
WHEN IT COMES TO HOUSING?
• Are close to public transport and amenities
Homes which…
• Get the basics right first – good levels of
insulation and airtightness
• Consider building form and volume on heat loss,
daylighting and cross ventilation
• Consider orientation in terms of solar potential,
heat loss and overheating
• Consider integrated services locations e.g. MVHR
• Are great places to live – bright, warm, safe,
flexible, delightful(!) with positive connection to
outside and part of a good community. These
places will be around for many more generations
