Riverside Headquarters Building for MHS Homes
Overview
MHS Homes is a provider of socially affordable houses in the Medway area. Their new 5,000m² office building, on the bank of the Medway, brought their array of smaller offices into a new, sustainable home.

Night-time air is circulated throughout the structure of the building to provide heating and cooling without mechanical air conditioning, creating one of he country’s most efficient and sustainable office buildings.
