Introduction: Expertly crafted using Passivhaus design principles, Lancaster Park is Northern Ireland’s foremost energy efficient housing development with every property Passivhaus Certified to LEB standard.
Remit: These houses needed to be completed with upmost precision to ensure that they achieved the Passivhaus rating. Passivhaus buildings provide a high level of occupant comfort while using very little energy for heating and cooling.
They are built with meticulous attention to detail and rigorous design and construction according to principles developed by the Passivhaus Institute in Germany and will be certified through an exacting quality assurance process.
Spanning 26 acres near Belfast’s Saintfield Road, Lancaster Park will eventually house 219 of these modern low-energy and near-zero carbon homes. The project is expected to set the standards for Northern Ireland’s greener future in construction and domestic living.
