This Oxfordshire country house underwent a complete refurbishment and high-performance sustainable retrofit, transforming the property into a highly energy-efficient and future-ready home. The project combined advanced low-carbon technologies, including ground source heat pumps, with the careful insulation of the building envelope and the installation of high-performance insulated glazing to significantly reduce energy demand and operational carbon emissions.

​

A pioneering feature of the refurbishment was one of, if not the UK's first whole house LED lighting systems. Designed with exceptional attention to colour rendering, warmth, and intelligent dimming controls, the lighting strategy delivers outstanding energy efficiency while creating comfortable, human-centred living spaces. The result is a sensitively refurbished country home that seamlessly combines architectural quality, environmental responsibility, and cutting-edge sustainable design.
