We designed the mechanical and electrical installations to an energy strategy that includes a ground source heat pump, which extracts energy from boreholes beneath the garden. A solar thermal array on the roof generates hot water in summer. Any excess heat is diverted into the boreholes so as to improve their efficiency by replenishing some of the heat extracted the previous winter.
The integration of the building services is fundamental to the spatial quality and so we have designed and coordinated the building services in detail with the architecture. Bespoke electrical lighting and accessories have been designed to provide a consistent and discrete aesthetic throughout the house for power, lighting and controls.
