Upton Square - Northampton

RuralZED is a fast to construct, affordable route to zero carbon. It is a high quality housing system, combining micro-generation and small biomass technologies. Traditional construction materials provide sustainable architecture with a solid aspirational aesthetic.

RuralZED has been received its code 6 certification for the One earth homes at Upton, Northampton. These homes are the first commercially built homes to receive certification.

The recent government publication ‘World Class Cities’ (May 2009), cites Upton in Northampton as one of the few case studies built recently in the UK that exemplifies the principles of sustainable urban extensions.
