Oxley Woods Houses designed with Energy Conservation Features

Architects Rogers Stirk Harbour and Partners formerly known as Richard Rogers Partnership have completed the first homes with features of cutting edge designs at Oxley Woods - a sustainable housing project near Milton Keynes in England.  The houses include more off-site construction than traditional English homes do besides consisting of all energy conservation features.

The 145 properties have been constructed from sustainable materials and employ unique features including an ‘EcoHat’ – allowing hot air to be reused to optimize energy consumption and provide passive solar water heating – as well as exceptional layouts to maximize space and light.
