Housing projects designed by Hawkins\Brown are vital, activating, challenging places to live. Housing design is about more than meeting the guidelines, and yardsticks of housing standards, or the raw provision of living space.
Translating urban ways of thinking about housing to suburban or even countryside environments has developed new models. In many ways these settings can be more permissive, more open to radical forms and ideas than over policed, compacted urban environments.
Our schemes are dense, challenging and innovative because land is scarce everywhere, energy is finite and affordable housing is needed outside and around cities just as much as in the centres.
