Eco-refurbishment in central Cambridge

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Eco-refurbishment

AC Architects Cambridge Ltd. are currently on site with this whole house refurbishment and extensions to a house in central Cambridge which uses natural materials throughout the building fabric to sustainably upgrade and extend this family home.  

Cork and foam glass aggregate floor insulations, sheep’s wool and cork wall insulations, and wood fibre roof insulation have all been used instead of synthetic insulations, and the use of concrete has been reduced.

Lime render and cork external finishes marry in with the existing and new brickwork to create a striking yet sympathetic addition which is harmonious with the existing colour palette. The rear loft dormer is now in the process of being formed and AC Architects look forward to seeing the overall volume take shape.
