architect designed mews house
Local to East London, sustainable architects One Point Five Architecture have designed a new house on the site of a former single-storey store to a shop on the main road. This new house turns the rear access road into a new mews, adding housing supply and densifying a sustainable, walkable community, in line with local planning policy.
conservation area features
The house uses design features characteristic of the Conservation Area - round-headed arches and a butterfly roof, to tie the new house back into its context.
sustainable design
The house is designed with sustainable materials, like reclaimed brick, and bio-based materials like timber and woodfibre.
