• City Centre location; good public transport links, no car parking
• Re-use of existing structure
• Replacement of external envelope with higher performance skin
• Natural materials used
• Planted roof; attenuates rain water run off, creates bio-diversity
• Natural ventilation for bedrooms and public areas
• State of the art heating/ cooling system used
• Card switches, PIR, timeclocks used.
• Water conservation through showers, low volume cisterns & flow restrictors
• Induction hob used in kitchen.
• Good building management practice in place.
Summary

• More efficient building= less plant
• Less plant= less capital cost, less running cost
• Less plant= more income generating space
• More income generating space= more profit
• Less overheads= more profit
• More profit= greater capital value
• Greater capital value + profit= happy client!
