Mechanical design for a luxury residential home. A private homeowner approached us to help create her forever family home. The project involved designing comprehensive mechanical systems, complete with a hair salon, gym, and nanny annex. Despite space constraints, our team implemented heating, cooling, and ventilation solutions. Working closely with Calder Peel Architects, we turned the client’s vision into a comfortable, high-tech reality.

CLIENT OBJECTIVES
Our client, a private homeowner, wanted to create her dream family home. With an interior designer already on board, she sought expertise in mechanical design for a luxury residential home. The aim, to ensure the mechanics worked seamlessly with the rest of the property. The brief included incorporating a hair salon, gym, spacious kitchen for entertaining, a nanny annex, and an additional lounge near the children’s bedrooms. The client prioritised comfort and functionality, with no expense spared in achieving her ideal living space.
OUR SOLUTION
Our team at PSA took on the challenge of delivering a full mechanical design for the property.
This encompassed:
- Heating, cooling and ventilation
- Water systems
- Air conditioning for bedrooms
- Underfloor heating
- Fire suppression misting system for the ground floor
- Air source heat pump
We faced the added complexity of limited plant space, as the client wanted to maximise storage areas. The heating and domestic hot water system is supplied by a number of air source heat pumps. Cooling is supplied via separate air-cooled refrigeration. We also provided a water supply for an innovative rainwater collection system, which feeds into the garden’s irrigation, supporting the lush landscaping and a newly installed Padel court.
THE OUTCOME
In collaboration with Calder Peel Architects, we successfully delivered the designs on schedule, meeting all of the client’s requirements. The property is currently mid-build.
