The design of residential buildings is one of Nadico’s pillars: multi-family developments, single-family homes and residential refurbishment where aesthetics, comfort and functionality converge. We pursue quality architecture that brings together design, innovation, energy efficiency and sustainability, and offer developers and private clients strategies that improve the profitability and value of their assets.
What we design in residential
How we approach a housing development
Feasibility and planning fit
Study of the plot, buildable area, number of homes, parking and mandatory reserves, and a first cost estimate so the developer can decide on data. When the land still requires planning or reparcelling, we manage it through our urban planning service.
Design and energy efficiency
Basic and detailed design with passive design criteria, efficient envelopes, low-consumption services and renewable energy, to achieve the best energy ratings and, if desired, Passivhaus certification.
Construction and handover
Site supervision and health and safety coordination, quality control, installation licensing, first occupancy licence and handover documentation for buyers.
Frequently asked questions about residential projects
Which energy rating suits a new development?
The Spanish Technical Building Code already requires near-zero-energy buildings; achieving an A rating or the Passivhaus standard improves sales and reduces running costs for buyers.
Do you refurbish residential buildings?
Yes: energy refurbishment of envelopes, services and accessibility, with grant applications, and full refurbishments.
