Passivhaus in Portslade

Gbolade Design Studio have been appointed by Brighton & Hove Council to provide new council homes on a site replacing a former police office and disused stores in Portslade. The homes form part of the Councils’ Hidden Homes Programme, building new rented council homes on council-owned sites across the council. The homes are a mix of 2 and 3Bed Houses designed to Passivhaus standards and utilise offsite construction. The tight site sits awkwardly on the end of an existing row of terrace houses, navigates a steep topography from the front to the rear of the site.
