Details:

Project type: Developer invited tender

for Liverpool City Council, Green homes regeneration Department.

Year: 2003

Client: Greenfield Way Ltd

Number of units: circa 120
Location: Everton / Liverpool, England

The brief from Liverpool was to provide an ecological and sustainable solution, which would interest a wealthier customer to an area requiring regeneration. The proposal respects and restores a new urban framework equivalent to that, which once existed in the area. The proposal suggests that street widths and the sense of community that existed before the sixties redevelopment of the area took place be reinstated.

A series of semi private courtyards provide the proposal with a sense of community and security. The proposal represents a truly sustainable approach to construction. The timber framed buildings proposed address the issues of primary energy use, embodied energy, water use, construction time and cost, and other inherent issues associated with sustainable and efficient house building.
