1960 Remodel and upgrade

DHV architects have obtained planning consent for the remodel of a 'standard' 1960 house involving the complete re-design of the front elevation. The building envelope will be thermally upgraded to achieve higher insulating values than a new build; the new facade will feature high-performance triple glazed composite windows and fibre cement slates cladding over 150mm of wood fibre insulation. The side walls will be externally insulated and rendered.
