An affordable, intergenerational housing development for older people and postgraduate students, with generous and welcoming communal spaces, designed to Passivhaus standard.
Melfield Gardens is a highly sustainable, affordable housing scheme on a constrained site in Lewisham. It is designed to Passivhaus as the first step towards zero carbon. Designed for Phoenix Community Housing, most of the new homes are for people aged over 55 years, with some accommodation allocated for postgraduate students from Goldsmiths to bring the benefits of intergenerational housing. In return for spending a few hours each week with older residents, the students will be charged a lower rent.
