When I was doing my A-levels I considered applying for physics degrees but decided to follow a path into Architectural Technology instead. I've been fascinated by the Passivhaus and Enerphit standard since uni and I think my interest in it has always stemmed from my interest in building physics. Over the last 5 years I've also become very aware of the impact we're having on our environment. I've made lifestyle changes to reduce my personal environmental impact yet with 25% of UK emissions directly attributable to the built environment we can have an even larger positive impact on the environment through our work. There was a great article in the AJ recently by Scott McAulay about the impact we can have as designers. Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT) have just launched their climate society, there's a highly climate-conscious architect running for RIBA president (Duncan Baker-Brown), and we're very likely to have a more climate focused government starting in the next couple of weeks. Hopefully we're reaching a tipping point for positive change as an industry and nation rather than an environmental tipping point (and focusing on the positives helps keeps my climate doomism at bay too)! 😅 I'm super grateful to LSI Architects for supporting me to undertake the Passive House training and I'm really looking forward to putting all the learning into practice. I've already worked on some great retrofit projects at LSI, such as Morley College mentioned in the article - here's to the many Passivhaus, Enerphit, and other low carbon new build and retrofit projects ahead of us. If you're thinking of becoming a Passive House Designer, I highly recommend Coaction Training CIC. The course was great and all the tutors were super knowledgeable with backgrounds and experience spanning the breadth of the industry. Undertaking my first exam in almost 10 years was a bit intimidating (where has the time gone since graduation?) but the course prepared me well for it.

Turbo Ventilators: A Sustainable Approach to Building Ventilation  This white paper explores the concept of turbo ventilators, a natural wind-driven solution for building ventilation. It delves into the historical development, working principle, and performance characteristics of these devices. Additionally, the paper discusses the benefits and limitations of turbo ventilators compared to conventional electrically powered systems. #WeAreARTISTA# ARTISTA helps our client to ensure optimal performance and aesthetics by integrating the systems in building sectors. By following the provisions like, Site Analysis and Wind Assessment; Roof Design Considerations; Ventilation System Integration, our architects and engineers can ensure that turbo ventilators are effectively integrated into the building design, maximizing their ventilation benefits while maintaining structural integrity and architectural aesthetics. #TurboVentilator# #Sustainability# #ClimateChange# #ArchitecturalEngineering#

Integration of Turbo Ventilators in Building compared to conventional electrically powered ventilation systems it offers an energy efficient, low maintenance, durability and Environmentally friendly. For details one can read the paper published on ARTISTA. #WeAreARTISTA#

Architects and designers are increasingly integrating photovoltaic systems into their projects to create energy-efficient, sustainable buildings. In this short essay, I’ll explore the significance of PV systems as an active sustainable design strategy and discuss their impact on architectural projects. #sustainablearchitecture #sustainabledesign #photovoltaics #solarpower
