Transforming Homes is one of four Green Transition Ecosystem (GTE), funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), through Future Observatory: Design the Green Transition Programme. The four projects are integral to UK Research and Innovation’s strategic portfolio of £800 million per year in green investments aimed at developing solutions to achieve Net Zero targets.
The GTE programme is dedicated to translating design-led research into real-world benefits. By harnessing clusters of excellence, these ecosystems address critical challenges posed by the climate emergency.
Transforming Homes GTE involves contributions from architecture, engineering, social science and sustainability, reflecting the AHRC’s commitment to advancing interdisciplinary research.
Initially the Transforming Homes GTE received £4.6 million of funding from the AHRC to run between October 2023 to September 2025.
An additional £3.1 million was secured in June 2025 for Phase 2, from October 2025 to March 2028.
The GTE will deliver interdisciplinary research that facilitates the transition towards a green economy focusing on real-world benefits and impacts.
