Roderick James Architects




http://www.rjarchitects.co.uk/home.html

"Established in 1974 and based in Totnes and Dartmouth, Devon, Roderick James Architects LLP specialise in contemporary architecture with a particular emphasis on space and light. We are especially known for our close association with Carpenter Oak Ltd and the design of timber frame buildings."

The Aspirational Timber home designs are what first interested me in sustainable design.
The Forestry Commission buildings used timber grown within view of the construction site and have high levels of insulation with geothermal heating, solarpanels, and 'grey water' harvesting.
