The project aims to produce the UK’s first net-zero carbon commercial building.

They are the embodiment of a system.The core purpose of the project drives the analysis that informs the selection of Chips..

Defining Chips for the project.At a point in each project, we go through the process of defining Chips for that project, in order to develop a Chip library.This can start with a reference design, or a blank piece of paper.

Or we might start with a similar type of project for which we've generated Chips in the past.. Chips can be made at different levels.A chip is not a module or a piece of equipment, it's a part of a chain.

Depending on the problem you're trying to address, you can set the level of the size of the Chip to the level that is appropriate to your analysis.

A chip can, therefore, be a whole factory, a building, a production line, or a single machine within a production line.The formerly forgotten backland site now features pavilions surrounding a central communal green area, providing a fantastic outdoor space for the community to use and enjoy.

The lockdown imposed on us by the COVID-19 pandemic saw the urban garden-style placemaking at Churchwood Gardens really come into its own.Residents could easily get out of their property and into the natural environment, while still feeling safe..

This level of placemaking, along with the sustainability credentials of the scheme and the added benefit to the existing built environment, is what social value in architecture means to us at Bryden Wood..Constant reflection, evaluation, and improvement.
