Greenwich House ongoing design development
Three feasibility design options for a new house in Greenwich were initially developed in a series of working models to test scale, bulk and proportion within the context of the surrounding development.
These 3 options have each been undergoing much design development over the last few months in the form of alternate plans, elevations and sections to tease out the optimal outcome in response to the client brief, planning controls, and the particularities of the site and local environmental conditions.
