Living

'No man ought to be condemned to live in a place where a rose cannot grow.'

That was George Cadbury’s maxim. And that’s how we approach our residential architecture.

We want to create thriving communities that will last long into the future.

We want to create places for people. Where there’s green space for children to play and nature to grow. Where homes are affordable, cared for and ready for new technology. Where humans come before vehicles.See examples of our residential architecture below, or help us in Shaping Future Places.
