Our scheme proposes a series of 10 2-bed houses hidden behind a wall. The ‘wall’ conceals private gardens, and opens up to reveal generous entrance porches and kitchen windows, with good surveillance to the pavement. Overhead, the dwellings ‘peek’ over the wall, with windows that look out onto Morpeth Rd.
The section, with its pitched roof form, allows all rooms to face the street or the internal garden, and the houses are designed to have minimal impact on the adjoining residential gardens in terms of light, privacy, and overshadowing.
