How we built it

摘要

With eight varied buildings set around an extensive public realm and steeped in the local context, Trafalgar Place provides homes with a unique sense of identity. The design brief required a departure from the alienating size and monotonous, repetitive nature of the Neobrutalist Heygate Estate. Instead, we took an aspirational and innovative approach to providing high-quality housing that regenerates the neighbourhood. Through extensive public consultation with local residents, we extended upon the brief to infuse Trafalgar Place with the rich local context.
