Athletes' Village - Plot N02

Built

James Brittain

Plot N02 contains 317 apartments set around a raised courtyard and takes as inspiration a familiar London typology of buildings set around communal gardens.

Plot N02 contains 317 apartments and townhouses set around a raised courtyard covering bike/car parking. The scheme is inspired by the London typology of terraces of white stucco (in this case white precast panels) presenting a formal face to the street, contrasting with a relaxed atmosphere to the rear where elevations in stock brick (in this case terracotta panels) overlook informal private and communal gardens. The balconies provide generous amenity space and are grouped in clusters that animate the façades.
