Delivering a Sustainable Future

Greenwich Millennium Village

Client: Countryside Properties and Taylor Wimpey with Homes and Communities Agency and Moat Housing Group

This innovative mixed-use residential development will have over 2000 homes as well as commercial and retail space to provide local facilities and employment. Over 1100 homes are currently occupied.

Our advice enabled the design of homes with high standards of environmental performance, energy efficiency and water use. Additionally, materials that minimised environmental damage were selected. Management and construction techniques employed best practice measures.

Instrumental to the sustainability of the development was the bringing together of economic, social and environmental innovations. When combined with improvements to construction quality and productivity the project represents a major commercial and innovation success.
