New Build
The fold is based on the tight and awkwardly shaped site the curved and folding nature of the building allowed us to continue one aesthetic around the site while breaking down the mass as the folds overlap. The site demanded a building with no back, only public faces on all sides, and had significant contextual constraints. We found that using the curved folding facade we can step and split the building while keeping a single and continuous identity. The scheme breaks the mould of housing stock in the area, providing a new exciting product - modern living with a sustainable backbone. The Fold is now on site due to be complete during 2013.
