Ecoworks defines residential schemes that offer a better quality of life for communities, genuine value for property developers and a sustainable future for buildings.

Our future homes

Ecoworks works on residential schemes that offer a better quality of life for communities, genuine value for property developers and a sustainable future for residential buildings. In some places we must consider shrinking household size and growing demand for easy access to public transport, work and urban leisure. In others, changing demographics are driving new demand for high-quality housing.

Working with leading architects and developers, Ecoworks plans, designs and engineers residential buildings of all types. These range from bespoke single dwellings to low-cost modular housing and high-rise towers.

Residential designs

Ecoworks recognizes residential designs must reflect emerging behaviors and needs. We transfer the benefit of our in-house research to clients and communities. Today, home design must embrace sustainability from the start, something we realized for the Zero Energy house. Even in everyday applications, Ecoworks expertise in building physics and building services allows us to design with exemplary energy performance in mind.
