· Is it possible to build affordable houses that are 80% more energy efficient than the current standard new UK house?

· Is there a really sustainable alternative to the houses that are being built all around us now?
Come and hear Jonathan Hines share his vision and his experience as an architect and managing director of Architype, the UK’s leading architects for sustainable buildings. Based in London and Hereford, Architype build to the highest ‘Passivhaus’ quality standard and have won awards for their buildings. Jonathan has also recently set up a Hereford-based company, ArchiHaus, to help realise his vision for ‘living villages’.
