Concept Design

This contemporary apartment scheme overlooking the river in Cambridge has been given planning consent. The scheme consists of 14 duplex apartments as well as 2 one-bed apartments and 3 penthouses on the roof. The design has strongly expressed cross-walls made of a local Cambridge brick. These are set out in a fan arrangement that creates a facetted elevation following the line of the river.

Spectacular double-height living spaces face the river and the meadow beyond while the bedrooms are at the rear facing a private garden.
