Description

"When it comes to creating a home… we’re creating future memories for people.”Did you know that buildings account for 39% of all global energy related carbon emissions? From the energy used in central heating to the materials used in their construction, our homes are a huge contributor to our carbon footprint. So how do we create sustainable homes for the future? Architectural firm Warehome, based in East London, is trying to answer that question. In this episode, Founder Joe Stuart tells us about how Warehome specialises in the German design approach  “Passivhaus” and takes us on a tour of his home (also the first house that Warehome built and designed.) Find out how they’re using carefully considered building materials such as timber to make the building process more sustainable, and designing the space so there is no need for a central heating system. He also explains how important it is to design a space that is personalised and a home, and how virtual reality can help to deliver that for clients. We also hear from Brian Thompson, who heads up PTC’s CAD division. He explains why PTC’s CAD software CREO is such an important part of Warehome’s drive towards sustainability. Warehome is also supported by PTC strategic partner Inneo UK.Find out more about Warehome here.Find out more about CREO here.Your host is Paul Haimes from industrial software company PTC. Episodes are released bi-weekly.
