Project Examples
Energy-Efficient Façade System
The architects developed a technically complex façade to optimise thermal performance without relying heavily on M&E infrastructure. The project included a cutting-edge multistorey car park and a multiuse main building with a 500-person auditorium on the upper floors, presenting significant technical uncertainties in balancing aesthetic and performance requirements. By demonstrating how this project addressed these uncertainties and advanced industry standards, we successfully defended the R&D claim.
Modular Housing Scheme
The project involved designing a highly sustainable, volumetric scheme of 563 homes in a built-up city centre area. At the time, it was recognised as the tallest modular building in the UK, pushing the boundaries of modular design. We highlighted how this project innovatively addressed urban housing challenges, supporting its eligibility for R&D relief.
Acoustic Isolation System
This project focused on developing an acoustic isolation system for high-end apartments and a spa situated above the Victoria underground line in London. The proximity to underground lines created significant technological challenges related to vibration. By detailing how this project overcame these challenges through innovative solutions, we successfully defended the R&D claim.
