The Ouseburn Co-operative.

This project was the first project of second year. It makes the student focus on the importance of community and local surroundings. We had to design a co-housing dwelling to accommodate 3 elderly people, and 3 students (aged 20-25). The concept had to encourage social interaction between different kinds of people with different lives so the social spaces within the design had to be properly thought through. My particular site was a Greenfield site so environmental design and minimal invasion of the space was also of high priority.
