Gondar Gardens

This innovative development involves the transformation of a derelict underground reservoir into sixteen luxury dwellings.

Introba (formerly Elementa Consulting) has been brought in to provide mechanical and electrical design services from concept through planning stages. Here, the brief is to retain the existing underground structure by designing a sympathetic development around its current structure and features to create a unique, design-led development.

As a development within an Area of Ecological Interest, a green approach to design is clearly of paramount importance. The project will achieve Code 5 for Sustainable Homes. Sustainability is, therefore, at the forefront of Introba’s mechanical, electrical, and public health design work on the project.

Introba is incorporating key sustainable features within the design. This includes using photovoltaics, rain and grey water harvesting, combined heat and power, and innovative, low-energy external and internal lighting designs.
