Development Overview

This project is for a proposed development on disused brownfield land, presenting the perfect opportunity to increase housing provision in Port Sunlight. The layout is designed in order to bring the site back into active use, connecting the site to the surrounding residential area.

Over a third of this development is affordable housing, a significant increase compared to planning requirements. The project was designed not to differentiate between open market and affordable housing to fully integrate this into the development.

Materials were selected to fit within context and with the intention of recycling post use. The housing types vary in terms of scale and elevational treatment to create visual interest. The development as a whole is considerate of site and context, with end users prioritised in the housing and landscape design.
