PassivPod entered into the ‘Start-Up with Social Impact’ section of this high-profile national competition run by Virgin. Taking part facilitated the development of a promotional video and resulted in local and regional media coverage and increased public awareness of PassivPod.

Run by The Sunday Times, Homebase and the British Homes Awards, this competition aimed to unlock innovation around green building with passivhaus principles. Our original and creative PassivPod holiday home achieved a place in the final stretch of the process for its innovative organic shape and luxury features. This competition was the original inspiration for the PassivPod design.
