Seb Laan Lomas
Associate & Passivhaus Designer
Architype Architects
Course attended: Certified Passivhaus Designer - October 2020
What did you think of the course?
The course was delivered by different pairings of tutors by module, all industry leading experts. This approach was more stimulating, allowed individual expertise and passion to come through, and provided you with a robust network of experts as you begin your journey
What was the key learning outcome for you?
The course gave me the confidence to advocate for Passivhaus to be adopted; in house, and with clients and consultants.
How will you apply what you learned?
I have overseen an industry-leading retrofit scheme for a Council’s estate which used the methodology and processes of EnerPHit to inform retrofit interventions and estate wide decarbonisation pathways. It has also enabled us to adopt Passivhaus for the design of our own bio-based self-build project in Herefordshire.
"Building physics occur in our projects whether you understand them or not. This course gives you Jedi levels of understanding."
