Island Wall

PROJECT BRIEF

  • Redevelop existing brown field site
  • Construction of six three bed houses
  • Buildings to be designed with good environmental standards

KEY ISSUES

  • Site within conservation area
  • Exposed seaside location
  • Restricted eaves and ridge heights

SOLUTIONS & SUCCESSES

  • Very tight internal planning increased usable floor area
  • Individual high specification interior design
  • Buildings raise due to proximity to sea and under croft used for storage
  • Green oak frame construction enabled off site fabrication and quick on site erection of frame
  • Internal organisation of space and external elevations make the most of spectacular views
  • Garden landscaping and planting works with seaside climate and soil conditions 
  • Modern vernacular fits in very well with character and context of the conservation area
