The project aims to deliver a contemporary affordable prototype housing by maximising the building area of the identified site through compacting and configuring the design into a waffle grid arrangement, as opposed to the traditional tenement row.

​

The houses are stepped down the steeply sloping site to allow for good natural light and views out to the rolling valley grasslands for all residents.

​

Each house has 4 small separate garden and courtyard spaces across both ground and first floor level to meet minimum garden area requirements, maximise bringing in daylight and create a sense of community.
