Temple Farm is a 34 acre site in Chelmsford, Essex, remediated to provide a live/work campus which complements its rural surroundings.
The new HQ for Jehovah's Witnesses in the UK, it comprises a factory unit, offices, residential and healthcare buildings, and an energy centre.
Uniquely, the £150m project has been built thanks to a mainly volunteer labour workforce.
Crofton Consulting produced dimensioned working drawings to enable the volunteers to work from Crofton’s output without the need for a main contractor. Accurate 3D views could be shown to volunteers to improve their understanding of the project and what was planned.
The first phase 450-unit apartment block took little under seven months, some six months ahead of what would be typical for a project of that nature.

It is only the second BREEAM Communities project to have received an outstanding rating.
