Hoare Lea continues involvement with Greenwich Millennium Village
Published: June 2007
Hoare Lea has been appointed by Greenwich Millennium Village to develop phases three, four and five of its scheme in London. The practice will design M&E systems and supply specialist building-services design advice, including sustainability, acoustics, fire engineering, lighting, public health and virtual engineering. The architecture will include detailed consideration of passive design solutions to minimise energy consumption; orientation, fenestration, fabric insulation and permeability will be incorporated. It is expected that renewable technologies will be incorporated, with likely sources including biofuel, solar DHW and small scale wind power. Low-energy solutions to be employed included natural ventilation, district heating served by CHP, instantaneous DHW, low-energy lighting and high levels of thermal insulation. Bill Grant, a partner with Hoare Lea, comments, ‘Hoare Lea has been a key player in the ongoing development of Greenwich Village and is delighted to be appointed for these phases. This project will set the benchmark for high-density residential development for the next decade.’ |
