THEGREEN 4GROUP
Consultancy
The analysis, modelling and surveys that make a design work: on the site, on the budget and on the energy bill, for our own projects and for other practices and developers.
Fully integrated with the design process, from conceptual strategies to simulation, iterating through alternatives before settling on the solution. Every building has to withstand a changing climate, so we work out what needs to adapt, to what, and when.
- Fabric-first conceptual strategies
- Site microclimate analysis
- Solar irradiance and shading studies
- Orientation, space planning and zoning
- Daylight and artificial light analysis
- Heating, cooling and energy use analysis
- Carbon emissions calculations
- Lifecycle cost and water use analysis
- Natural ventilation and wind potential
- Renewables and photovoltaic payback
Building information modelling is at the heart of how we design: project teams collaborate on a virtual model, test ideas and coordinate the work before anything is procured or built, so the decisions that matter most are made early, when they add the most value.

The team's business, financial and project development experience means a client can test a scheme's viability at the earliest stage: feasibility studies, options appraisals and financial viability assessment, before design fees are committed.
