Northumberland Passivhaus'

Next Project >>

Situated on the edge of a historical village, with expansive views over the Northumberland coastline, we have been working closely with our clients to design 2 new build homes, embracing a sensitive design methodology, that will also meet the highest environmental performance targets.

The 2 homes, have been designed with a rigorous scientific approach with the aim to achieve Passivhaus Certification for both properties. This means buildings that make the most of the site and the solar gains on offer, whilst minimising heat loss through careful use of openings, form and construction detailing, making extremely comfortable and low energy homes.

An equally important aspect of the design is in response to the local context. These are homes that sit well in the surroundings, contemporary design that works in traditional surroundings, at the edge between residential and agricultural land.

The houses both have open living spaces on the 1st floor, with expansive views over the coastline. 

We look forward to developing the designs in more detail, and can't wait to see these 2 exceptional homes under construction!
