Resi Talks: The rise of rooftop development

New policy, ongoing demand for affordable housing and a lack of land in city centres all point to a rise in rooftop development. Last year, the government introduced a new permitted development right to allow two-storey residential extension on top of existing buildings. This type of development can fund wider refurbishment and fire safety measures, with scope to provide 180,000 new homes in London alone. But still, resident backlash, a misunderstanding of the industry and complex construction requirements pose a challenge. In this podcast, EG's residential editor Emma Rosser is joined by councillor Stephanie Cryan, cabinet member for council homes and homelessness at Southwark Council; Arthur Kay, founder and chief executive of Skyroom and Phillippa Prongué, chief operating officer at Apex Airspace. The group discuss the potential for airspace development and what is needed for this to scale.

From sustainable affordable key worker homes on the rooftops of city buildings to a revolutionary new way to insulate old homes from below, this podcast covers it all. Arthur Kay discusses how Skyrooms offer an alternative way of providing low cost homes that don't cost the earth by using largely redundant space on top of existing buildings.

Arthur Kay is the founder and CEO of Bio-Bean, an award winning clean energy company that recycles old coffee grounds into advanced bio-fuels. Arthur chanced upon the beautifully simple idea while he was studying for a degree in architecture, and kicked off the company just a few days after he graduated. Very soon, he had raised several million pounds in private funding and built an expert team with decades of combined experience in the energy industry. Today, the waste from one in ten of the UK's cups of coffee goes through Bio-Bean's factory.  In this episode, Arthur tells us how ideas mean nothing without execution, about the danger of being labelled a “green” entrepeneur, and how he hopes to hack the world's major cities, one problem at a time.
