A look at the amazing TARMAC HOMES PROJECT once the construction was finished.
It's the holy grail of UK housebuilding: how to build affordable zero-carbon homes in volume using conventional materials. Now, Britain's housebuilders and housing associations can draw upon a blueprint for a zero-carbon home built using traditional masonry materials.
The Tarmac Homes project, a test-bed initiative led by Tarmac, affordable housing developer Lovell and The University of Nottingham's Department of the Built Environment, has built two landmark homes -- one to Level 4 and the other to Level 6 of the Code for Sustainable Homes -- the Government's zero-carbon target for all new homes by 2016.
