What is the business case for rooftop extensions? Thijs Müller,
Co-founder of Creative City Solutions, and Didier Mignery, Founder
of UpFactor, explain how adding housing on top of existing
buildings can address several challenges at once: housing
shortages, energy renovation and urban land use. This episode
covers: • When rooftop extensions make economic sense, and the
technical, regulatory and financial complexities involved • How
revenue from additional homes can help finance energy renovations
and upgrades to existing buildings • The advantages of modular
timber construction and designing for deconstruction The episode
also looks at the potential scale of rooftop extensions, and the
role of regulation, data and stakeholder engagement in making them
more viable and scalable. This is the first episode of the “Rooftop
Extension” series.
