live/work: work plus home

Live/work is a unique type of property specially designed to combine workspace and home.

In the UK, live/work schemes are becoming an increasingly popular option for people who freelance or run their own business (see examples, left).

The advantages are not just down to the convenience of homeworking. Live/work units incorporate a professional easy-access work area - making meetings on the kitchen table and endless trips upstairs to the cramped spare room a thing of the past.

They are also extremely good news for the environment. One live/work unit uses up a significantly lower amount of carbon to build and to fuel than two separate buildings for work and home. And of course there's no need to commute.

Live/work can save you time, save you money and help you do your bit to save the planet.

Add in the special Cloud Nine low carbon buildings factor and you have one of the most sustainable types of building on the market in the UK today.

To be able to offer our unique eco-modular live/work units, Cloud Nine has teamed up with the experts. Live/Work Network is a nationally renowned consultancy that advises government, local authorities, regional agencies, developers and architects on best practice. It also runs live/work property finder websites in the UK and the USA.

As a partner behind Cloud Nine Livework, Live/Work Network's role is to advise us on the best ways to help landowners and buyers to create vibrant, attractive and functionally well-designed live/work spaces.
