Do you want a more personal 1:1 tour of HHP customized to meet your interests?

Do you want to mix a visit to HHP with discussions about how to develop your plans?

Do you want people to assess your scheme that are experienced at putting sustainability into practice?

Do you want to take the next bold step in realising your dreams of a more sustainable future?

 Then a HHP ECOSCOPE is aimed at you.

We have developed the HHP ECOSCOPE service in response to a growing demand for more personal assessments of people’s plans and a detailed look at applicability of principles demonstrated at HHP. There is no fixed time length and it can involve a one-off or a series of meetings at HHP or elsewhere.

You decide what you would like included in the HHP ECOSCOPE. It can include any of the following:

·         Tour of one of the earth-sheltered homes including energy saving features

·         External tour of site focusing on autonomous water systems

·         External tour of site focusing on renewable energy systems

·         HHP initial assessment of your plans/ ideas with suggestions for follow up

·         Technical discussion of construction specification and implementation (this may require extra time or a separate meeting)

It is possible that you may consider this meeting an initial assessment that could lead to you considering whether HHP gets more involved with your plans/ project. These are examples of areas we have got involved with on previous projects:

·         Provision of technical advice/drawings (this may involve sub-contracting some work to a CAD expert familiar with HHP design methodology/approach)

·         Identify key constraints to your project and offer potential solutions.

·         Assisting you in developing a Project Management Plan/ Action Plan.

·         HHP facilitating or acting as a host for people likely to influence your project (e.g. hosting a workshop or tour for those providing you with professional services or your local planning authority)
