​Pocket Habitat

​

  • Unique modular vegetation system designed to promote biodiversity in urban areas.
  • Pre-filled with soil substrate and wildflower seed mix to suit local conditions.
  • The form of each Pocket Habitat is engineered to provide sheltered, shaded and exposed areas to enhance plant growth.
  • As well as shape, colour has been incorporated in the soil substrates to add an even greater impression of texture and visual beauty. The differing substrates are carefully chosen to help promote diverse communities of species.
  • Because each Pocket Habitat only weighs 20kg at delivery, they are ideally suited to being manually handled, speeding up installation and making retrofitting of existing buildings simple and effective.
  • Once the bags are positioned, nestled together to form a regular pattern, a simple drawstring opens the bag to allow rain and light to promote seed germination and plant growth.

Sustainability

A more secure future​

 


Minimal management helps organizations and communities reduce global and micro-level risk by applying our understanding of the natural world and its practical connection to business.



Sustainable infrastructure design is not just about new infrastructure. It is about rehabilitation, reuse or optimization of existing infrastructure, which is consistent with the principles of urban sustainability and global sustainable development.

​

This encompasses infrastructure renewal, long-term economic analysis of infrastructure, energy use and reduced infrastructure costs, the protection of existing infrastructure from environmental degradation, material selection for sustainability, quality, durability and energy conservation, minimising waste and materials, the redesign of infrastructure in light of global climate change and the remediation of environmentally damaged soils and water.



To our clients, resilience to resource scarcity may mean a robust energy strategy. Or it may mean using a product, like Pocket Habitat, custom-designed to allow British Land to retrofit green roofs to their existing building stock, providing shape and structure and encouraging wildlife.

Energy-efficient systems and low-carbon materials are key to Low2No’s building design, but the scheme also offers inhabitants convenient, affordable ways to reduce their individual carbon footprints. As well as pocket greenhouses in each dwelling, good public transport access and zero-carbon car clubs, these include a range of web and smart phone applications to help people decide, for example, the greenest way of getting from A to B.

MM responds to the demands of a low-carbon world by helping clients understand and manage their carbon output.


Businesses and governments face increasingly tough decisions as they tackle financial performance alongside carbon targets, global economic effects and the risks of energy scarcity and climate change.


A clear strategy from the outset embraced the human, environmental and economic to produce a model for sustainable living that is simple, engaging and practical for people.

Energy demand management tools and techniques such as smart meters and behavioral change prompts will encourage residents to contribute reduce energy consumption.

These objectives will be met by coupling solutions with an increased shift towards renewable energy production and new sustainable funding mechanisms.
