UK:INDIA LOW CARBON BUILT ENVIRONMENT TRADE MISSION Well - that’s a wrap for the trade mission. How can I sum it up? I’ll have to add another word to the one that I used in my last post on the subject - this week has been ‘ABSOLUTELY brilliant’. Kolkata more than delivered - no wonder it’s known as ‘The City of Joy’. An incredibly warm welcome from everyone we met, inspiring engagement on the potential of collaboration and a captivating cityscape to experience. And all of this in the delightful company of our travelling party - most of us new to each other at the start of the week but now firm friends (and able to do each others’ presentations). Hard work but also a hell of a lot of fun. Thank you to those on the Kolkata leg of the tour - British High Commission in India, Department for Business and Trade, Ashita Agnihotri, Rishikesh Chanda, Julie Godefroy, Will Campion, Eleni Polychroniadou, Amit Bhave, Gordon Rates, Bawesh Pradhan and Sankha Deep And a big thanks to #India too - what a country!!

A privelege to have been a part of, representing our practice and the UK

🔎 Discover more about the approach taken by Bennetts Associates for the Work in Progress Pavilion for Robotics Living Lab (RoLL) 🤖   This pioneering pavilion, designed by Bennetts Associates for Manchester Fashion Institute at The Manchester Metropolitan University, is an exemplar building showcasing the benefits of using UK grown softwood, straw insulated panels, charred timber cladding, and a radiant heating approach.   Bennetts Associates’ approach to the design has resulted in an upfront carbon figure of 468 kgCO2e/m2 GIA (A1-A5), the full breakdown of which is available to download here. A further -340 kgCO2e/m2 GIA biogenic carbon is captured in the building.   📖 Read more below! 👇   #UKmaterials #ResourceConsciousDesign #Architecture 

Our Director Simon Erridge is speaking tomorrow at the Bisnow UK Life Sciences And Innovation Real Estate Annual Conference.

Our director James Nelmes is featured in the March issue of Higher Education Estates magazine, discussing the Edinburgh Futures Institute and decarbonising education estates.   James discusses how with many existing university estates made up of old and in some instances heritage buildings, attention is shifting increasingly to how to bring them up to standard. To do this, steps must be taken to provide the most thorough and accurate analysis, which is where a robust methodology comes to the fore.   📖 Read more about the transformation of the Edinburgh Futures Institute and Bennetts Associates’ methodology approach to design that ensures long-term resilience, creating well loved spaces for the exploration of ideas.   🔗 https://lnkd.in/ew2Rm_2J   #EducationDesign #Architecture #DecarbonisingEducationEstates
