The invisible solution

Our innovative OWNABLE APPROACH unlocks the value trapped on the roof tops of our cities, and reveals how we can create more and better homes, increase sustainability and regenerate existing buildings all without upfront capital. We just need to raise the roof to make it happen.

Research shows that a minimum of 180,000 new homes could be realised through rooftop developments, that’s sufficient to meet 42% of London’s Housing targets by 2025. The GDV of this market segment is value around £54bn which could also be reinvested to improve existing housing stock – if you’re interested in tapping into this market let us know.

Looking at the fabric of our existing urban spaces through the lens of air rights can be incredibly positive. Rooftop schemes provide upgrades and improvements to older building stock, unify the appearance of areas, and providing additional housing in areas that have capacity.

The architectural map of London is enormously varied, reflecting the huge evolution of the capital over the past millennium. Viewed from afar, options for significant development on that map appear few and far between. Zoom in, however, and the existing environment offers a multi-tiered landscape ripe with opportunity. All we need to do is recognise that the only way is up.
