The Trafford Eco House already has a presence on ‘green maps’ of Greater Manchester because of the residents demonstration of super-local food growing. The family currently source around 40% of their food from their own back garden, and the client is a professional advisor on climate change and food related issues.
This refurbishment and extension project has been influenced by the economic climate. A key driver for the resident is reduced fuel bills and a reduced dependency on increasingly expensive fossil fuels - whilst also being able to accommodate the growing needs of their family without being forced to move house. The project received planning permission in late 2013.
URBED suessfully gained planning permission for this scheme. The client decided not to take the project any further.
