Passive House: Setting the Standard for Low Energy Buildings

Passive House, or PassivHaus as it’s known in Germany, is gaining traction in the UK—and LEDA is right there, pushing the envelope. This low energy building design standard is key to hitting low carbon targets and meeting housing demand. The beauty of Passive House? It delivers high-quality, super comfortable buildings with excellent internal air quality. It’s a win-win for both the planet and the people living inside.

Building Performance: Making Sure Buildings Work Smarter

LEDA doesn’t just design buildings; it evaluates how they perform in the real world. By comparing actual performance to expectations, the team identifies ways to boost efficiency and sustainability. This means existing buildings get a future-proof makeover, with heating, ventilation, and lighting systems optimized to operate as sustainably as possible. It’s about making sure buildings don’t just look good on paper—they work smarter every day.
