Encon Associates were commissioned to provide BREEAM and Code for Sustainable Assessment for a Mixed Use scheme in Islington, London. The mixed-use proposal for this corner site optimised the development potential to deliver 9 luxury apartments and commercial space at ground floor. The residential accommodation includes 8 two bed and 1 three bed penthouse suite.
Client: Rocco Homes (Formerly Urbanicity)
Main Contractor: LR Lima Construction
Design Team: QA Architects and Silva Lindley Architects
Project: A mixed-use development of 9 one-three bedroom apartments with one commercial unit
Location: 46 Percival Street/ Cyrus Street, Clerkenwell, London
Services Provided by Encon: BREEAM, Code for Sustainable Homes, SAP, SBEM, Daylighting and Ecology
The proposed scheme is to demolish an existing building and construct 4 storeys of residential accommodation with offices on the ground floor.
Encon Associates provided an initial Pre-Assessment under BREEAM Offices to assist the Design Team in ensuring the specification for the new building would meet the BREEAM 'Very Good' rating. Other services have also been provided on this project including Code for Sustainable Homes and Ecological Services.
