The business idea of the developer for this project is based on urban
and small, awkward sites, so called "space left over after planning".
The site is a narrow strip between two party walls.
The block comprises nine flats, from 18 to 137 sq m. Two flats have private
roof gardens.
The plans are compact but well lit, from the front and rear facades and
a central light well. As the site is completely built over, the roof gardens
become central to the development strategy in order to provide communal outdoor
space.
The material strategy has been to use a limited number of high quality
materials: copper, heat treated pine, exposed concrete and painted steel, with
oak parquet on the interior floors. The main structure is concrete
post-and-beam.
