Prelim Floor Plan Plot 4
The preliminary elevations shown below were presented at the consultation meeting on 12th November. The architect has chosen subtle colour rendering of the timber cladding as a means of differentiating each home in the development. Windows on the south elevation are larger to capture solar gain. The CLT and the architect would like to know what you think about these elevations - please!
Consultation on 10 December 2019 - Elevations
The elevations below were provided by PKA for the consultation session which took place in the Pavilion, Rusty Lane, on Tuesday 10th December 2019. The home elevations were displayed on boards and the meeting was asked to rate the elevations using red and green dot stickers. For the sake of simplicity Plots 1 to 4 were shown as examples. The changes were implemented as a result of the good feedback provided by the community. Click each thumbnail image to enlarge.
The roof panels shown are photovoltaic and the porches have been redesigned. Red roofs are pantiles and the grey roofs are slate.
