RIBA East Midlands Award 2024 & RIBA Sustainability Award 2024 for 2050 Homes Nottingham

We are delighted to have been awarded the RIBA East Midlands Award 2024 and the RIBA Sustainability Award 2024 for 2050 Homes Nottingham.

“In Nottingham’s Sneinton area, 63 non-traditionally constructed houses have been upgraded using a Dutch standard, Energiesprong, which could offer a scalable solution. What sets the Energiesprong approach apart from other external wall cladding schemes is the rigorous approach to the whole-life costs of the houses.”

“The thermal upgrade consisted of overcladding the houses’ walls, roofs and ceilings with prefabricated timber-framed panels. The panels, complete with windows, insulation and finished cladding, impressively took only 12 days per home to install, and required little internal intervention, allowing tenants to remain in their homes throughout the construction work.”
