Specialists in the assessment of daylight, sunlight and overheating.

At GV8 we understand that ambitious projects have an important role to play in the delivery of sustainable urban development. We support this ambition by championing the benefits of both daylight and density within all planning assessments.

Drawing on experience gained over a decade of practice GV8 can be relied on to formulate the most effective assessment strategy for each unique development site.

Having invested heavily in the development of validated tools and rigorous procedures, GV8 has confidence in the fidelity of all daylight predictions and their conformity with the test methods prescribed in the BRE Guide 'Site layout planning for daylight and sunlight' 2022.

GV8 works to support the development of attractive and sustainable urban spaces. We produce robust BRE compliant reports that can be relied on by all parties involved in the development process.

The practice of daylight assessment is subject to continuous change and active debate. Amidst this discord GV8 has developed the capacity to communicate complex issues with confidence and clarity.
