Redoubt Court - Biodiversity, Materials & Energy Strategy
Biodiversity
- Extensive soft landscaping is proposed to boost on-site biodiversity net gain and create attractive outdoor spaces for residents and visitors.
To clarify: biodiversity net gain means that when new buildings or development are built, the nature on that land must end up in a measurably better state than it was before.
Local Precedent / Typologies
- The proposed site layout reflects the Fort Fareham estate patterns and site constraints, such as underground utilities.
- The modern design is inspired by local architecture, blending with the surrounding character.
Materials
- The proposal combines the prevailing colours and materials within the existing housing estate.
Energy Strategy
- A range of sustainable technologies will be explored, including roof-integrated solar PV panels.
- High-efficiency materials will be used to enhance the standard of insulation of all external elements.
