DGS Construction's first Super E Home, featured in The Sunday Times and The Observer, in addition to extensive coverage in the self-build press, has been designed with a specific emphasis on sustainability, above and beyond the efficiency already associated with Super-E homes. The house will be seen on Discovery Real Time's "House in a Box" on April 20th 2006.

This DGS Super E home has been highlighted in a new Conran book: "DESIGN + BUILD YOUR DREAM HOME" by Elizabeth Wilhide, which features 15 fantastic homes from around the world.

Another Super E home built by DGS Construction for a private client in Bedfordshire has been featured in The Mail on Sunday and Metro, and will also be one of the star homes in the "House in a Box" series, first shown on April 27th 2006.
