About reHab

White Design has for many years been at the forefront of solutions that put existing buildings “into rehab” to help wean them, and us, off our addiction to carbon.

Our portfolio includes projects ranging from residential retrofit, through to innovative commercial reuse of existing buildings, to large scale strategies for low carbon neighbourhoods.

rehab is a design approach by White Design that integrates behaviour-led design with appropriate sustainable technologies and creative new development models to maximise the potential of our existing buildings and landscapes while addressing their carbon habit.

rehab my home

'UK homes produce 26% of the country’s carbon emissions. rehab can help you save money and reduce your carbon emissions by remodelling your home around the way you live.'

We provide home owners and landlords with whole house strategies that can deliver deep cuts in energy use and carbon emissions. In partnership with engineering specialists we have developed a PassivHaus retrofit strategy that can be applied to any type or size of house. We work closely with our clients to understand those technologies and processes that are most suitable to help facilitate a shift to a low carbon lifestyle.

rehab my workplace

'Businesses and homes in the UK are throwing away up to £3 billion in energy every year; rehab delivers cost-effective and innovative, energy saving solutions by remodelling existing buildings to create affordable low-carbon workplaces.'

We work with owners of commercial properties to deliver innovative, low carbon working environments that send a strong, positive message to their customers and clients. We help business owners to creatively reuse their existing buildings and explore new development models that encourage slow, organic growth.

rehab my school

'We help schools to make the most of their existing estates, improve energy performance and running costs, and provide the best possible teaching and learning environments.'

We help schools to make the most of their existing estates, improve energy performance and running costs, and provide the best possible teaching and learning environments. This can include the reconfiguration of internal spaces, the creation of outdoor classrooms that link closely to an enhanced landscape, or the construction of new teaching spaces to support existing provision.

Kingsmead POE
Project Carrot
Bristol Uni Systems Centre

rehab my neighbourhood

‘rehab helps to create low carbon neighbourhoods, by maximising the use of existing buildings and spaces, with appropriate low carbon solutions that focus around your community.’

We engage with community groups to create building and neighbourhood development strategies that maximise the use of existing infrastructure and that reflect the needs and aspirations of all members of the community. Strategies at this scale can often exploit opportunities for coordinated renewable energy installations or waste management.

Portland Drill Hall
