Sustainability is the bedrock of our design, construction, and development process. Using low-energy and passive design principles we develop environmentally responsible energy efficient homes.
As a Certified Passive House Designer in Cambridgeshire Rob Bracey and Tailored Architecture are committed to climate-conscious architectural design. We design thermally comfortable homes in Cambridge and the surrounding area including Histon, Girton, Milton, Trumpington, Chesterton, Grantchester, Cherry Hinton, and The Shelfords, to the Fenlands of Ely. Adopting passive house principles enables us to deliver your low-energy contemporary house fit for the future.
All of our projects aim to comply with stringent energy targets and strategies in both operational and embodied carbon to achieve the environmentally light-touch buildings. We have developed strategies to follow the guidance below to achieve your project’s aims and sustainability goals.

What is a Passive House?
“A Passive House is a building, for which thermal comfort (ISO 7730) can be achieved solely by post-heating or post-cooling of the fresh air mass, which is required to achieve sufficient indoor air quality conditions – without the need for additional recirculation of air.” – Passive House Institute
Passive House is a fundamental design and construction approach that utilises principles of building physics to ensure superior energy efficiency and occupancy comfort.
Our Passive House design approach.
As a practice, Tailored Architecture is committed to sustainable design we have incorporated all the Passive House principles into our design process.
We adopted the six design principles of energy conservation. Every project we undertake abide by these principles to provide you with an energy-efficient and light-touch environmental comfortable home.
