The Greenhouse in Leeds is the UK’s most pioneering sustainable mixed-use development. The inspirational development, by Leeds based sustainable developer Citu, is the part refurbishment and part new build of a 1930’s art-deco period hostel.
The Greenhouse comprises of 172 one, two and three bedroom studios and apartments together with offices, gym, and a café, all located around a private residents’ courtyard. The shared spaces will be the location for a wide range of events and activities for the Greenhouse community to get involved in, these will include art exhibitions, sports screenings, film nights and much more.
Located close to Leeds city centre, Greenhouse offers carbon-zero living and inspirational design to its residents. The flooring in the apartments is solid bamboo taken from a sustainable resource and the bedrooms have natural wool carpeting with recycled underlay. Sustainable bamboo is also used for the kitchen worktops, which complement the white kitchen units with their stainless steel fittings. Bathrooms and wetrooms feature Porcelenosa tiling to the walls and floors and Villeroy & Bosch fitted suites. All apartments have a bespoke furniture pack supplied by high-end designers noughtone.
Every home in Greenhouse will save over 1 tonne of CO2 per year and 250,000 litres of water. That amounts to 1000 bags of sugar and 136 baths.
