Located next to Grade II listed ‘Captain’s Houses’ on Blackheath the inclusion of these two eco-homes, effectively in two back gardens, is the result of rigorous design selection and pragmatic negotiations with the local authority.

Two 4 bedroom houses have been designed to provide large quantities of natural daylight to the main living areas. The open staircase with the side window and roof light ensures a feeling of being constantly in touch with the external environment.

Photovoltaic panels, a sedum roof and impressive U-Values to the wall construction ensure that the two buildings are responsive to their environment in more ways than one.

With the use of external materials sensitive to their sub-urban surroundings the two residences have sought to successfully integrate themselves into the ‘homes’ of the local context of Langton Way.
