Background
History
BedZED was designed by the architect Bill Dunster to be carbon neutral. The project was led by the Peabody Trust in partnership with Bill Dunster Architects, Ellis & Moore Consulting Engineers, BioRegional, Arup and the cost consultants Gardiner and Theobald. The project was the first construction project where a local authority sold land at below market value to make sustainable development economically viable. The 82 homes and 1405 m2 of work space was built within the period of 2000–2002. The project was shortlisted for the Stirling Prize in 2003.
