A thoughtfully designed housing scheme on a constrained brownfield site, optimising every metre of its unusual shape, steep 7 m slope and single access point to deliver a well-rounded, sustainable neighbourhood.

​

The proposal comprises a mix of 1–4 bed homes with private gardens and south-facing terraces, with open-plan living spaces oriented to capture views over the Tyne. Integrated solar panels, structurally insulated panel (SIP) construction and permaculture-inspired landscaping support long-term performance and connection to nature.

​

Communal allotments, live/work facilities, landscaped shared spaces and accessible paths foster a strong sense of community, blending sustainability and modern living within a compact urban setting.
