Project: New Food Retail Store
Client: Tesco Stores Limited
Size: 90,000 sq ft
Status: Completed
This 90,000 sq ft store project for Tesco Extra in Shrewsbury was remarkable in a number of ways. It is their first store in England to have been constructed using a laminated structural timber frame, which supports modern energy-efficient composite materials.
Heating and cooling are achieved using water from geo thermal bore holes, and part of the lighting requirement is met by electricity generated by photo-voltaic cells on the site’s south facing slope. Designated as an Eco-Store, it demonstrates Tesco’s commitment to the development of environmentally friendly stores with low carbon footprints.
Disability Action Yorkshire have a long relationship with SSA-Architects which began with the design of our residential home for younger adults with physical disabilities when they impressed us with their commitment to ensuring that the design aided full accessibility and independence. They have remained firm supporters of and amongst other events run an annual bike ride raising much needed funds to support our work. They show a genuine interest in our work and in the ongoing needs and aspirations of disabled people. We consider SSA-Architects to be true and valued friends of the charity.
