This week we share a nice design concept emerging for a new town centre development that involves master-planning an existing commercial site. The scheme is being developed with Alcema and includes 8 new apartments with undercroft parking on a sloping site. 

The scheme uses the site’s sloping levels to accommodate the semi basement car park, with the architecture defined by the use of pitched roofs and traditional brick tones that are evident in the surrounding conservation area. The design twist and architectural contrast is provided by the bronze coloured standing seam roof and wall cladding, sharp roof dormers, and contained balconies. 

This project is a continuation of our increased workload in designing town centre mixed use development.
