I am always keen to work with clients who share the same desire to lower the carbon emissions of buildings.
DvJ Design has experience in advising clients with regards to sustainable designs that are also affordable and presenting the information in a clear form.
The graph shown is an example of how the energy use for an existing house was calculated for a client and the energy reduction for each option was displayed. This along with operating and running costs allowed the client to make an informed decision.
I am a certified Passivhaus designer so I can model buildings in the Passivhaus PHPP software and provide advise to meet the criteria. Passivhaus certification is far more rigorous than Part L compliance so it is a great way of ensuring that the finished building will perform as expected.
The energy performance of a Passivhaus is far better than a building regulation compliant building. If we are to meet the UK's zero carbon target, all new buildings should be built to the Passivhaus standard.
