We specialize in designing and delivering customizable 1-bedroom annexes that are tailored to meet individual needs and site-specific requirements, all while ensuring compliance with the latest building regulations. Our approach combines offsite and onsite construction methods, resulting in a cost-effective, efficient solution without compromising quality.
One such project was a self-contained annex built for The Royal Borough of Greenwich Council. Designed within a compact 7.7m x 4.9m footprint, the annex offers a fully functional living space that includes a modern kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, a living area, and a dedicated bedspace – all in an open-plan arrangement. This design optimizes the use of space while maintaining a bright and airy feel.
The annex was built to the latest building regulations, with a focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. Key features include:
• High-Performance Insulation: The building structure incorporates Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), eliminating the need for steel elements. This innovative solution delivers exceptional airtightness, superior insulation performance, and minimal cold bridging, ensuring compliance with building regulation U-Values while maximizing interior space.
• Energy-Efficient Systems: The annex includes A-rated appliances, compact MVHR units for ventilation, electric heating, and hot water systems, all designed to minimize energy consumption and reduce running costs.
• Sustainable Comfort: The adjustable colour temperature LED lighting enhances the living experience, creating the ideal ambiance at any time of day, while high-performance double glazing ensures thermal comfort and noise reduction.
This project exemplifies our commitment to providing flexible, high-quality living spaces that meet the needs of both the user and the environment. Whether you are looking for an affordable housing solution or a space-efficient addition to a property, our annexes offer an ideal combination of style, functionality, and performance.
