The Brief
A new 101-key hotel for Hackney Wick, designed to bring together local creatives, community groups and guests, creating a cultural destination that reflects the area’s creative identity.
Our brief was to support the design development at the pre-application stage including an air quality assessment, circular economy statement, sustainability statement and whole life-cycle carbon assessment (WLCA) in support of the full planning application.
The Solution
Love Design Studio provided holistic sustainability guidance during concept design to ensure the proposals met and surpassed local policy requirements and maximised the scheme’s potential BREEAM rating.
Detailed air quality and energy modelling of the building was performed to generate the required evidence for various BREEAM assessment issues, including Ene 01, Hea 01 and Hea 02.
The Result
Love Design Studio continued to support the project through the design stage by acting as the BREEAM Assessor and ensuring the scheme met the targeted sustainability credentials.
The project has now been approved for planning.
