Crawley Zero-carbon Office
Project Information
Location: Three Bridges, Crawley
Client: Private Developer
Status: Planning Granted
Year: 2020
ZED PODS office is designed to perform as a zero-carbon building with roof-integrated Solar Photovoltaic. As compared to the traditional office, 70% energy demand of the ZED PODS office is reduced using Passive strategies.
​
Creation of open landscaped feature and frontage planting, and public art feature.
​
Improved thermal performance — super-insulated, minimum thermal bridging and excellent airtightness.
​
The proposed ZED PODS Office is designed to have minimum window area on the West elevation, only to allow daylight and cross ventilation on a hot summer day.
​
Addition of louvres that protects the building from overheating during summer while also improving daylight levels inside the building.
​
Improved natural ventilation by increasing the amount of open-able windows. Floor to ceiling windows for better distribution of daylight throughout the floor plan reducing the need for artificial light.
