New Custom House Build Project
Bobin Homes recently completed this custom build bungalow.
The house was built to customer specifications and has two levels plus an added extension area which could open out to a patio area with large double glass doors. The top level of the house has been designed using the loft area thereby making good cost efficiency savings. |

Housing Innovation Showcase
The project is a partnership between Fife Council, Kingdom Housing
Association and a select group of contractors.
As one of the contractors selected for the showcase, we at Bobin Homes
developed an insulated concrete formwork building, through our partner, Beco
Wallform.
This system is at the forefront of eco technology, although we are focusing on
the building fabric and not the ‘bolt on’ renewables.
Beco Wallform consists of pre formed blocks which lock together to form a permanent
formwork for a concrete core. The formwork is then clad in polymor rendor with
no need for block superstructure. Inside the block the walls are plastered onto
the becoblock.
With u-values ranging down to 0.11w/m2k, ideal for future ‘passivhaus’
recommendations.
