Rowland House
SIZE
500,000 sqft - 1,000,000 sqft
BUDGET
$10M - 50M
Support and Independence
This proposal provides extra care sheltered housing where residents will feel safe in an accessible for all structure with 24 hour personal care and leisure opportunities but also to guaranty to the individual a sensation of independence in a non-institutional environment
Time scale
The transition between Cranleigh central and modern facilities could be introduced by a "time path" conceptual approach which translates the different types of architecture witnessed by Rowland House's residents (let's say from Tudor to Deconstructivist), the building closest to the schools representing the future
Contemporary Arts and Craft?
. the area has strong links with Lutyens and Jekyll from whom concepts could be re-used
. ‘Arts and Craft’ design principles: simple forms, well-made, natural materials, natural patterns/motifs
. use of local materials: stone, flint, tile, brick, timber
. reference to Surrey Hills: chalk, greensand, yew/box woodlands, heathlands
. Arts and craft colors: terracotta, cream, mustard yellow, olive green, deep blue, deep crimson
. principles of Jekyll gardens: natural style English garden, impressionistic brush-like strokes to planting, color, texture and experience, shrubs and herbaceous planting
. combine semi-rustic materials with hi-tech
Gardens for care homes
. warm, sunny areas for sitting out, eating and socializing
. legible clear routes, entrances and landmarks. Even paths around the site for walking
. appealing to the senses; scent, water, color
. raised planters for access
. horticulturally interesting. Strong structure with possibility for personalization of planting within
Other things…
. character of spaces should be small-scale, friendly, welcoming, secured
. use tree planting, materials to visually break buildings into smaller elements, asymmetrical
. layering of materials
