Robin and Sarah Charlesworth with their children
(Picture: Karen Scott)When Robin Charlesworth made video calls during the winter, he’d see his colleagues wrapped up in jumpers and scarves, while he’d be sitting in his kitchen in Colliers Wood in just a t-shirt.
It wasn’t because he had the heating on high — in fact, he didn’t have the heating on at all. No, Robin lives at 95a Robinson Road: a carbon neutral home that he designed and built for his family to live in, classed as one of the country’s most sustainable homes.
