Mid Terrace Dream
Collective Works
Barnet, 2025
Mid Terrace dream started as a humble, run-down North London Terrace. Our client, a young couple, had a long-term view from the outset. They understood that a bright future for them and their family would go hand in hand with a low-carbon future for the planet. They wanted a home for their future family that reflected their heritage and personality. They also wanted a place that would have low energy demands and be a light touch on the environment. The deep retrofit delivered all this, and sets an example for the 14.3 million UK homes in need of modernisation.
“When we bought our house it was hard to imagine what we could achieve. We spent a lot of time discussing and exploring options with Collective Works - imagining how we would live here. It was time well spent. Living here is incredibly comfortable, we have become properly house-proud and it's a great place to entertain. “I like looking at the energy consumption, paying attention to the solar panels and adjusting our habits to when we can use our renewable energy. But the most enjoyable thing is that you feel it - it is comfortable, quiet and we know that the air we breathe is clean.”
