HAB Housing Revenue and Competitors

HAB stands for Happiness Architecture Beauty and these are the values we hold dear. We're a progressive housing developer set up by Kevin McCloud in 2007 to challenge the way identikit volume housing was built in the UK. The houses and places we build respect the local context and biodiversity; are strongly rooted in history, landscape and the community; and are sustainable, beautiful and a pleasure to live in. HAB treads a sustainable development path, favouring a fabric-first approach to environmental construction with a focus on biodiversity, edible landscapes and sustainable drainage. We adopt an intelligent balanced, holistic approach in line with One Planet Living principles and we're committed to ensuring that our homes are economic and efficient to run. Oh, and our streets are all fruity. HAB's custom build approach puts customers at the dart of the design process, following a stepwise approach: Select your plot - Decide where you want to live and then mull on the ideal plot for you. Top of the hill for the best view; near the river for ideal fishing spots; the biggest garden for veg-growing? Your family size, budget, hobbies and a host of other things will shape this decision. Tailor your home - HAB homes can be customised to meet your needs, desires, family and hobbies. You'll work with our team to select from our flexible 'kit of parts' to ensure you choose the house layout and finishes that best fit you. Options include open plan living or separate rooms, and upstairs living rooms to take advantage of views and natural light. Maybe even build some of it yourself - Once the design work has been finalised HAB will build your dream home, parcelled up and ready to move in. But on some schemes you'll have the opportunity to take your house off us at an earlier stage, to finish to your own budget and taste, for example after we've put in the foundation slab and services; or when the roof is on and windows are in.
