Mixed Use & Residential
Inspiring Change. Empowering Changemakers. Building services play a crucial role in the comfort and safety of a building’s occupants. Introba understand the residential and mixed use marketplace, taking a multi-disciplinary approach to projects. Building services are essential to the operation and functionality of mixed use & residential developments. They are critical for maintaining a comfortable, healthy and safe environment for residents, workers, and visitors. Building services play a key role in the energy efficiency and sustainability of a mixed-use development. Properly designed and maintained systems can help to reduce energy consumption, lower costs, and minimise the development’s environmental impact.
STRATEGIC WORK We take a holistic performance-led approach to designing passive and active systems for mixed use & residential led schemes. The focus on compliance and tick boxing is a trend that we are actively working to change and have assisted in updating the GLA London Plan via our LETI leadership (Low Energy Transformation Initiative). We have also provided the industry with research and publications carried out with CIBSE on embodied carbon.
