Start with the news release Carbon neutral Stride Treglown office from Stride Treglown, which we summarised at the time by saying "Stride Treglown architects install over 100sq.m of photovoltaics on the roof and south facade of their new Cardiff Office, making it Carbon Neutral". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Catnic timber frame steel lintels in Exeter from Catnic: "The Catnic lintels were specified for Cowley Bridge Road, a 219-bedroom student accommodation building in Exeter, because of their durability and longevity.".
