Great to see a good audience for our placemaking workshop that took place in Swansea this week. It was so refreshing to see architects, town planners, engineers and representatives from housing associations and local authorities deep in dialogue about carbon and placemaking, with some interesting recommendations for how the discussions can be continued within the construction supply chain. Our ambitions are to explore this topic in more depth in the future, so watch this space for more details. Plus if you have an interest in low carbon or the placemaking agenda, please get in touch with Woodknowledge Wales.

I am thrilled to announce that Lambeth Council has approved our plans for Hardess Yard, a transformative co-living and light-industrial development in Brixton, designed for Mitheridge Capital Management and LGL. This BREEAM Outstanding project will create 320 state-of-the-art co-living studios with shared kitchens, meeting and work rooms, café, library, gym, lounges, a screening room and much more. Alongside this, 1400 square metres of light industrial space will cater to the creative industries and provide high-quality studio and commercial space on the eastern fringe of the Brixton Creative Enterprise Zone. We designed Hardess Yard with an eye toward Lambeth's rich history, ensuring it integrates with the evolving urban fabric. Inside, the building becomes a glimpse into the future of urban living: a sustainable, adaptable, and amenity-rich community hub that promotes connection, collaboration, and creativity. Drawing from our decade-long experience in delivering shared living projects, our vision for Hardess Yard expands the traditional co-living model by offering a vibrant multi-layered social core along best-in-class light industrial workspaces, all designed to empower residents to live, work, and connect in a thriving new heart of Lambeth. A huge thank you to everyone who supported this vision through public consultations and collaborative dialogue, and congratulations to our incredible design team: Maddox Planning, Integration, Heyne Tillett Steel, K2 Construction Management, Kanda Consulting, VervLife and Turkington Martin. #PLPArchitecture #CoLiving #UrbanLiving #Sustainability #CreativeIndustries #Brixton

🌍 EPC A: A Commitment to Sustainability 🌍 Because we could. Because we wanted to. Because we must. This project tested us in every way: from an early pre-let tenant falling into insolvency to contractors entering receivership. At every challenge, we were asked if we wanted to lower the spec to save costs. Every time, the decision felt surprisingly simple. In the end, it comes down to this: we either choose to do our part for the planet we’re leaving to our children, or we don’t. There’s no grey area here. We chose “yes” at every turn, trusting that someone who shares our vision for a sustainable future will see the value in what we’ve created. If you know someone looking for a high-spec, EPC A-rated building with true environmental integrity, please reach out to Stephen Page Finn Ledwidge Shaun Simons Joshua Miller #Sustainability #EPCARating #GreenBuilding #RealEstate #Future

I think Paul Read is right. It would be fantastic if people in the UK affordable housing sector shared something about schemes that have been career highlights and explained why. I tag Paul Read to go first, as it was his idea! He can tag others to contribute next! It will be interesting to see if there are common denominator or surprising factors that could benefit affordable housing going forwards. #AffordableHousingStory
Development Projects I'm Most Proud Of: Chater House, Roman Road, Bethnal Green This is going back a while. It was the 1990s and I'd just moved from Southampton to London and taken on my first team manager role for South London Family Housing Association. I was given this project to take on a somewhat 'unloved' ex-Council block and turn it into a Shared Ownership scheme. I felt that, to make a success of this, some imagination was going to be required. Working with the Employer's Agents and Architects, we put a lot of work in to the design. We picked up on some elements of the architectural style of the existing building and settled on an art-deco theme to build upon. The flats were re-configured, and this resulted in creating a couple of maisonettes at the end of some of the upper floors. Space was at a premium in these, so we created maisonettes with spiral staircases (I can't imagine making a choice like that now!). I also remember we paid a lot of attention to the interiors of the new lifts in the block, including installing a faux-walnut finish. All the front doors had port-hole style round windows in them. It wasn't the cheapest refurbishment, but it stacked up financially, and it looked what I considered to be very attractive at the end of the job. The proof of the pudding was in the sales, which were impressively quick. I looked the building up and found the photo below on Flickr. I think the building still looks attractive decades later, and the flats seem to be holding their value on the resale market. For many years since, I've frequently asked colleagues what the USP is for the individual schemes they're working on. Design matters. It's what gives places longevity and enhances people's lives. I know that there's a shortage of affordable housing and an ambition to deliver more at volume, but let's not just throw up ugly crap that we'll be ashamed of as our careers reach maturity. There are lots of projects ongoing where people put the effort in to creating an attractive place for a community to thrive, but that's not always the case. Like me, later in your career you'll want to look back on projects you've been involved in and enjoy a little heart swell about places where you really made a difference. Make it happen! I seem to remember the Architects and Employer's Agents were Baily Garner LLP. #AffordableHousingStory
