A high quality residential scheme of 19 homes.
The proposed houses’ aesthetic takes inspiration from the local 20th-century modernism still present in the area.
Elevated, lightweight horizontal floating forms allow the light to penetrate through. The surrounding landscaping is being reflected in or seen through the large panes of glass reaffirming the subservience of the architecture to its natural context, and its harmony with the spatial setting.
The ability to see through and beyond the buildings highlights the design intention for the architecture not to compete with its surroundings, but to complement and enrich the environment.
Supported by the case officer and the conservation officer, these designs were applauded for their sensitive and careful design.
