“We have had the pleasure of knowing Sue Connor for many years and particularly over the past 2-3 years where we have developed a very strong working relationship based around Passive House buildings. Sue has an unflinching belief that buildings should enrich the lives of the occupants and her passion and drive towards Passive House is a testament to this. She is a highly skilled Architect and always works with the client’s best interests at heart and in our experience always over-delivers for her clients. We look forward to our continuing relationship with Sue and her practice.”
