OA Win at Committee

We secured planning permission last night at committee with members overturning the planning officers recommendation for refusal 9-3 and granting permission for a modest but important 2 flat residential scheme in central Bristol.

This scheme supports the design principles of the recently enacted Urban Living SPD and encourages higher density living in the central area. The many constraints offered by the tight back land site created the design drivers for the modest but contextual design response. The building steps back as it rises ensuring minimal impact on surrounding neighbouring buildings and maximum light penetration into the site.

It utilises quality materials and vertical and horizontal planting planes allowing neighbours to look out onto a roof-top urban garden.

The CGI’s were produced by realm communication on our behalf.
