A new house developed in Northumberland, Fold house evokes the layout of a Northumberland Farmhouse using modern metal barns as inspiration. The environmental designed scheme is innovative in its method of storing heat in the ground through an earth bank and displacing this back through the house. The house will set new standards of energy efficiency and self-generation within the striking design, making use of the latest technologies and pushing the boundaries of knowledge.

Sustainability Credentials (Stage 3)
Fold House is Paragraph 79 House, its Active Home strategy sets an innovative new benchmark for rural living by combining a number of active technologies and architectural elements to balance the dwelling’s energy demands throughout the year, creating a climate positive home.
