The EcoHouse, also spelled Eco House and stylised in the logo as eco house. [1], was a show house and ecohouse in Leicester managed by Groundwork Leicester & Leicestershire, then known as Environ [2] [3] with funding from Leicester City Council, among other organisations [4]

The EcoHouse was designed to demonstrate that small changes could case a large positive impact on the environment, [4] however, following the demise[ citation needed] of Groundwork, the building was abandoned.

On the 29th July 2021, planning permission was granted for the Western Ward Community Enterprise to redevelop the EcoHouse into a community centre [5] as part of Project Hive [6]
