These designs were developed by working collaboratively with Featherstone Co-housing group, on a community-driven residential scheme on the crest of Sydenham Hill, in south London. The designs provide long-term accommodation tailored to the group’s individual and collective needs.
The co-housing group is cross-generational with members from a diverse mix of ages and backgrounds including young families, middle-aged couples and single people of retirement age. The designs establish principles for a viable, long-term community that can be seen as a model for sustainable, social housing.
