The protective shell

Every design aims to shelter and protect its inhabitants.

At gyd modular, we embrace modern methods of construction to create sustainable, long-lasting modular buildings. Our approach combines the use of ecologically sound materials like Structural Insulated Panels (SIPS) with a selection of naturally sourced, weather-resistant finishes.

We offer cladding options such as western red cedar, renowned for its natural oils and resistance to decay, as well as Core-Ten steel, burnt oak, and larch—each designed to withstand the elements beautifully over time.

By integrating advanced off-site construction techniques with these high-quality materials, we ensure our buildings are not only sustainable but also architecturally striking and durable for years to come.

Nature meets durability

Timeless Protection: A Fusion of Nature and Design

One of the most important surfaces of your building is protected by our EPDM membranes, which offer a significantly longer service life compared to traditional felt alternatives. Our top systems last over 50 years, enduring extreme temperatures and resisting UV damage.

This exceptional durability makes them ideal for our optional planted green roofs, which feature ultra-low-maintenance organic plants. These not only reduce the visual impact of your building but also extend the roof’s lifespan, enhance insulation, and help the structure contribute positively to the environment—all without the need for mowing.

When considering a pitched roof option, we provide a range of customisable designs that enhance both aesthetics and functionality. Our pitched roofs are engineered for superior drainage and durability, ensuring they withstand the elements while complementing the overall architecture of your building. With options for eco-friendly materials and insulation, you can achieve energy efficiency and long-lasting performance.

Secure views

Seamless Views, Superior Performance

Windows act as transparent barriers that require exceptional insulation. To meet this need, we offer high-performance window systems crafted in Norway, featuring a robust laminated design with a thickness of 145mm (6 inches). These double-glazed windows are engineered to endure harsh Scandinavian climates while effectively reducing heat loss.

Boasting a remarkable U-value of 1.5 W/m²K, our glazing not only complies with UK building regulations but also surpasses the efficiency of many contemporary homes. Each unit is equipped with high-security locking mechanisms that are insurance-approved, ensuring peace of mind. Additionally, our large sliding glass panels foster a harmonious blend between indoor and outdoor spaces. More than mere windows, they represent our dedication to quality and energy efficiency.

Interiors that connect with nature

Bespoke Spaces with Natural Materials

Our buildings focus on a natural aesthetic that extends into the interior design. Whenever possible, we avoid conventional finishes like plaster and paint. Instead, we collaborate closely with you to incorporate high-quality prefabricated interiors using modern construction methods, including CNC technology.

This approach features elegantly designed shadow gaps between panels for a sleek, contemporary appearance. The walls, ceilings, built-in furniture, and workstations harmoniously blend to create an environment that feels as though it was carved from a single piece of wood.

We believe our expert team can design a space that perfectly meets your needs, whether it’s a gym, art studio, office, or simply a place to relax.

Floor finish

Be kind to your feet

When selecting flooring for your studio space, the choice will be influenced by the overall design and materials used in the fit-out. For instance, a fully clad interior would benefit from incorporating a colour found in the selection of our rubber flooring, creating a cohesive and vibrant atmosphere. Conversely, if the walls feature a minimalistic finish, opting for natural oak flooring can introduce warmth and balance, enhancing the serenity of the space.

Choosing the right flooring is a significant decision, and opting for environmentally friendly materials is crucial. That’s why we offer recyclable flooring options crafted from durable rubber, sustainably sourced minerals, and eco-friendly colour pigments, available in a variety of contemporary shades. These floors integrate beautifully with the internal birch walls, creating a seamless and sophisticated look.

Alternatively, you may prefer our engineered oak flooring, which offers a refined extension of the natural aesthetic throughout your space. Engineered oak combines the timeless beauty of solid wood with advanced manufacturing techniques, ensuring durability and stability. Each plank showcases the rich grain and warmth of oak while providing enhanced resistance to fluctuations in temperature and humidity.

This flooring choice not only enhances the elegance of your interiors but also contributes to a sustainable lifestyle, as it is sourced from responsibly managed forests. Available in various finishes and widths, engineered oak flooring allows for customisation to suit your style, making it a perfect complement to both modern and traditional designs.
