Project brief
A nine-unit social housing scheme in the centre of Holyhead, accessed off an existing housing estate.
Design details
With proposed materials taking reference to neighbouring dwellings, the strategy was to stick to a single, light- coloured brick and experimenting with form to create interest and depth to elevational treatment. The general forms reflected adjacent structures, with two storey units to the West and the single storey bungalows to the East. Perimeter hedging and trees were retained along with existing pedestrian links through to the improved play area, demonstrating how new housing proposal schemes can contribute towards placemaking within communities.
