Light House

Home » Residential » Light House

The brief for this project required the optimisation and enhancement of a previously consented design in order to improve the appearance of the elevations and internal arrangement of the apartments.

The resulting four-storey building with front and rear balconies provides three 1-bedroom flats and ten 2-bedroom flats together with private amenity space, six car-parking spaces and 11 bicycle spaces.

Whilst largely remaining faithful to the scale and massing of the original scheme, the final proposal was considered by the client and, significantly, by the planners to represent a vast improvement in design quality.  This focus on design quality resulted in securing permission for a higher residential density than the previous planning consent allowed.
