Residential

The practice has worked with leading housebuilders and landowners to prepare housing schemes ranging in size from two to two hundred dwellings.

 

We are able to balance the competing demands of density, amenity and impact to create schemes that win planning permission. As well as family housing, we are also working on higher-rise flats and are able to suit the design to the target market, and also produce schemes that are efficient in maximising the site yield. We have designed to codes 3, 4 and 5 of the Code for Sustainable Homes, to Lifetime Homes standards, and to the London Housing Design Guide.

 

We also design one-off houses including the award-winning Adshead Park.
