DESCRIPTION:Bob Hayes and Jonathan Hines will chart Architype’s exciting
  journey along the cutting edge of sustainable architecture\, from their r
 oots in the radical Walter Segal self-build movement of the 1980s\, to the
 ir current position as pioneers of the UK’s Passivhaus movement. This is
  a story of restless and relentless innovation\, inspired by Bob and Jonat
 han’s passionate belief in the potential of good design to shape a more 
 humane and sustainable future. Architype seeks to design buildings in whic
 h the architecture itself does all the hard work in saving energy and crea
 ting  a healthy environment\, instead of relying on techno fixes and green
  ‘add-ons’. This seminar will also illustrate how Architype’s collab
 orative approach and distinctive design philosophy have created buildings 
 whose quality has not only been recognised by the judges of many top desig
 n awards\, but more importantly\, work for\, and are much loved by\, their
  users.
