Care Village

Care Village

Sussex

Re-Format produced designs for a landscape-led care village in Sussex.

The dense vegetation surrounding the site, as well as the density of the existing housing development nearby was a key driver during the conception stage of the proposed scheme.

A proposed green corridor passes through the middle of the site, dedicated solely to pedestrians. Low density, modern bungalows are scattered either side of this – these are all subtly angled to suit the organic nature of the overall plan.

The green corridor terminates in a large open courtyard space, which is surrounded by a U-shaped residential block. The wings of the block have been subtly cranked to echo the conceptual approach applied to the bungalows.
