Case study - Teddington Riverside. PROJECT SUMMARY Dutypoint were challenged by mechanical and electrical contractors to design a creative solution to house all of the modern day household utilities within a very limited space for their upcoming Teddington Riverside project. The finished development will comprise of 217 luxury apartments, a mix of 1, 2 and 3 bedrooms with 258 secure underground car parking spaces, plus six 4 bedroom family houses. PROJECT CHALLENGE The design brief for the utility room consisted of a single prefabricated, sleek, all-in-one, modular utility room with an option to have a configurable layout that could be delivered to site towards the final stages of the construction process. Further to this, the room needed to have space for a standard sized washing machine or tumble dryer, a heat interface unit, MVHR and consumer unit with an electrical control panel which can manage the circuitry for the residence. PROJECT NAME Teddington Riverside INDUSTRY SECTOR Luxury Residential PROJECT TYPE Utility room CLIENT Hamilton s Architects MAIN CONTRACTOR Midgard Ltd PRODUCT SUPPLIED Packaged utility room with integrated HIU PROJECT SOLUTION After working collaboratively with the M&E contractors and architects, our engineering design team were able to create a concept version of the desired unit which was not only aesthetically pleasing, but also functional for the end user.
