As climate change intensifies, sustainable architecture is no longer optional, it's essential. Karenna Wilford Architects believes in designs that reflect environmental responsibility, utilising modern solutions like Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) and retrofits tailored to Passivhaus standards. But what does that mean for your home?


Designing Energy Efficiency Homes in West Sussex

Creating energy-efficient homes goes beyond basic insulation. At Karenna Wilford Architects, we reimagine layouts to maximise natural light, regulate temperatures and lower utility demands. From airtight construction techniques to high-performance glazing, each element works in tandem to reduce the home's environmental footprint.

Transformative Retrofits

For existing homes, we specialise in retrofits that enhance sustainability without compromising character. Our team carefully examines each structure's unique features to identify ways of reducing energy use through improved materials, updated heating systems and optimised ventilation. This includes integrating renewable energy sources where possible.


Building Healthier, Greener Spaces

Sustainability isn’t just about energy efficiency; it’s about health. By using non-toxic materials and focusing on indoor air quality, we ensure our clients’ homes are both green and healthy. We prioritise local, sustainably-sourced materials, aligning every project with our ecological values.


The Future of Home Design

We see each project as a partnership in sustainability. Whether it’s a new build or a heritage home, Karenna Wilford Architects is committed to thoughtful, environmentally-friendly designs that are timeless and resilient. For those looking to minimise their carbon footprint and embrace a greener lifestyle, we offer expertise that transforms spaces into efficient, beautiful and sustainable homes.
