This Certified Passivhaus is a conversion of an existing steel framed barn. Kingspan TEK SIPs structural panels were used to thermally ‘wrap’ the original steel frame providing a continuous and airtight thermal envelope to the walls and roof.
The envelope was then faced with rendered blockwork and timber cladding to the walls and a graphite grey zinc roof. The triple glazed windows and doors were supplied by Internorm.
The project also included a 150m² garage and studio workshop with solar PV array to the south facing roof.
