The UK’s contribution to the VELUX Model Home 2020 project
VELUX engaged HTA to evolve concepts for two homes in a semi-detached arrangement as the UK’s contribution to the VELUX Model Home 2020 project a pan-European series of six building ‘experiments’. The design includes a three bedroom home and four bedroom home with integrated garage. The two homes are designed to be spacious and airy, with a very high daylight factor (5%). The sloping roof and section are designed to maximise light and natural ventilation and the super insulated buildings have high levels of air tightness to reduce the amount of heating they need.
