CARBON HOUSING RETROFIT

This is a valuable & authentic collaboration experience with Manchester City Council's housing department. The aim of this project would be to establish the most effective overall package of retrofit measures necessary with low-carbon technologies at a typical 3-bedroom mid-terrace house. The outcome for this project should be a greater understanding on what is required within the design of a retrofitted home in order to contribute to the Manchester 2038 carbon goal.
