The latest update to CIBSE TM59 – Overheating Risk in Dwellings recognises that new guidance is needed as our understanding of overheating, occupant behaviour and future climate conditions improves.

So, what’s actually changed?

Where’s Wilko? Episode 3

Today’s location has a history stretching back over 600 years.

Once an important working dock, this hidden corner of London has connections to Victorian industry, a devastating cholera epidemic and even a WWII emergency water supply.

Look closely and you can still see the faded EWS lettering on the original brickwork.

And the contemporary artwork? Designed by Handspring Design and inspired by the construction of traditional boats.

Episode 2

This familiar red telephone box was designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in the 1920s.

But did you know its design has a fascinating connection to Sir John Soane?

Look closely at the proportions, classical detailing and distinctive shallow-domed roof… 👀

Scott’s design is believed to have been influenced by Soane’s architectural language – proving that great architecture can turn up in the most unexpected places.

But where is Geoff this time?
