Claude Avenue

Claude Avenue – Passive House Infill, Bath

This compact, high-performance Passive House occupies a former garage plot in central Bath. A true example of how underused urban sites can become high-quality homes, this single-storey dwelling is designed to rigorous low-energy standards and carefully crafted to sit within its historic context.

The design combines rubble stone base walls with a modern zinc-clad top section, creating a strong yet sensitive architectural language. Large windows offer natural light and views while maintaining privacy, and the highly insulated fabric ensures year-round comfort with minimal energy use.

This project exemplifies sustainable infill housing—small-footprint, highly efficient, and sensitively integrated into the urban fabric.
