    • The Role of Urban Farming in Solihull

    Changes to the Building Footprint

    The application aimed to reduce the building footprint by reorienting parking bays and creating new disabled spaces.

    The committee members were impressed by the project’s potential to create a sustainable and environmentally friendly community. The project’s main objective is to develop a sustainable and environmentally friendly community that incorporates green technologies and innovative design principles. The community will be built on a 500-acre site, with a mix of residential, commercial, and recreational spaces.

  • Green roofs and walls to reduce energy consumption and promote biodiversity
  • Solar panels and wind turbines to generate renewable energy
  • Rainwater harvesting systems to reduce water consumption
  • Electric vehicle charging stations to promote sustainable transportation
  • Public transportation options, including buses and bike-share programs
  • Community gardens and green spaces to promote social interaction and environmental awareness

    • The community will be designed to be self-sufficient, with its own renewable energy system, waste management, and water recycling facilities.
