About

A shared planted courtyard sits within a mix of housing, workspaces and neighbourhood facilities.

Prefabricated timber modules and connecting galleries support adaptable homes and common outdoor spaces. The project combines planted façades, roof amenities and a small forest at the centre of the block.

Sustainability

Homes and offices are built in prefabricated timber, with green roofs and façades, water retention on site, and solar and geothermal energy.
