House Builders
Many housebuilders in this country mass produce homes using a limited set of designs. Little
wonder houses lack character and look all the same. Self-build however is gaining in popularity
and allows you much more freedom to build a home that is unique, has character, and fits your requirements perfectly.
Have a look at the Housing Design Award winners
to see what is possible when aspirational clients get together with good architects to provide elegant modern
housing that meets the energy requirements of the 21st Century.
The old housing stock is leaving this country with an unaccaptable legacy of high maintenance, energy guzzling,
outmoded housing stock that is long overdue for renewal. We need to accept the challenge of providing
appropriate and sustainable mass housing that currently is a rarity in Britain, but is being provided by the likes
of Urban Splash and Bioregional.
