the coin street project is a perfect example for good
afordable housing. designboom appreciated it very much.
housing runs along upper ground and two quieter side streets.
with the training centre to the south, the development
forms a secure enclosure around communal gardens
safe for children to play in.
the garden-facing elevations, with their front gardens
and planted balconies, allow individuality, but the
design is unified by a continuous timber and steel
screen. balconies, trellises and louvred timber sun
shades are provided for all houses.
completion 2000


coin street housing has been awarded british housing
design awards.
