Envision has been working as sustainability and BREEAM advisors on behalf of Barwood Capital for a 30,000 sqft office and multi storey car park in Linford Wood, Milton Keynes.

Envision undertook life cycle assessment and life cycle costing to help plan the sustainability initiatives, helping to reduce embodied carbon of the the office building, as well as leading the BREEAM assessment.
