Futurehomes are a terrace of fifteen ultra-energy efficient townhouses that combine the use of CLT and Passivhaus design in a conservation setting. They are the first of their kind in London's zone 1.
Futurehomes are a terrace of fifteen ultra-energy efficient townhouses that combine the use of cross laminated timber as a sustainable building material and Passivhaus design in a conservation setting. They are the first terrace of their kind in London’s Zone one. While designing the Futurehomes, we sought to challenge the Passivhaus aesthetic. We wanted the townhouses to be sympathetic to the existing Victorian bay fronted townhouses situated directly opposite. Therefore, the Futurehomes employ projecting chamfered bay windows of reconstituted stone on the ground floor with tall shuttered windows above.
