He was a Director of Architype, an architectural practice working on housing, education, health and community buildings with specialist expertise in low energy design, timber-frame construction, community engagement and sustainable building. He is author of The Green Self-Build Book and contributor to Housing & the Environment and Architecture and Participation. He lives in London, where he runs his own consultancy.
Nick Grant is a freelance energy consultant and principal of Elemental Solutions. His interest in closing the performance gap between design and reality led him to the Passivhaus Standard of which he is one of the UK pioneers. He is an active contributor to discussions on sustainable design but is also a practical engineer and self builder. Nick was a long time Trustee of the AECB and is Technical Director of the Passivhaus Trust.
