Our top 5 sustainable building solutions
The benefits of creating an eco-friendly and efficient home include lower fuel bills, a healthy living space and having a positive impact on the environment.
We love passive design
Many clients are requesting passive heating and cooling in their buildings, not just for sustainability but also increased comfort and lower energy bills. To achieve this, we collaborate with architects and our building designers to use techniques such as strategic orientation and layout, glazed and shaded windows, light-coloured materials and insulation.
We create flexible spaces
As we see our cities grow and living is becoming increasingly dense. House prices are continuing to rise and people are having to make do with less space. Erban development we get inventive. We create flexible intelligent use of open plan layout and install cleverly – hidden storage solutions.
We specialise and embrace eco additions
An upgrade can be more challenging than constructing from scratch, especially if the heritage comes from the 19-20th centuries and is highly inefficient in its performance.
With a Erban Developments professional touch, however, a renovation can transform a heritage home into a sustainable and enjoyable shelter.
