Residential › Multi Unit Housing

A brownfield site in Horsham, is the location for the a proposed development of several new residential houses.The location of the site means that the oreintation of the houses has to screend to absorb both nearby road noise and prevailing wind generated by a nearby valley. Each house is orientated to make the most of the view across the rolling hills of Horsham.Each house is based around a repetetive yet varying structural module system, harnessing the power of minimal on-site time and good quality control measures. Each house was designed to inform the landscape, and thus also be informed by the landscape. A simple palette of glass, white render and steel was selected for each unit. Each house was generated to be a crisp modern addition to the sites existing language.
