Project 43
THE HOMES AT OXLEY WOODS HAVE BEEN PRECISION ENGINEERED OFF-SITE TO ALLOW EACH HOUSE TO BE QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY ERECTED WHILE MAINTAINING BUILD QUALITY. THEY ARE NOT ONLY COST EFFECTIVE AND ECOLOGICALLY SOUND, BUT THEIR POSITIONING ON THE SITE OFFERS A TRUE ‘PLACE FOR PEOPLE’, PROVIDING AN ENVIRONMENT THAT ENCOURAGES INTERACTION THROUGH WELL-DESIGNED PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACES.
Each home has also been designed to feature two distinct zones – the ‘service zone’ which will incorporate bathroom, utility and staircase areas, and an uncluttered ‘living zone’ comprising living room, dining room and bedrooms.
Richard Rogers of RSHP, said: “Our partnership with George Wimpey has given us an opportunity to take a fresh look at housing design. By working closely together, we have been able to develop an approach which links construction closely to design, giving real value to the home owner. The scheme at Oxley Woods is highly flexible and sustainable and will, we hope, provide homes for a diverse community for many generations to come.”
Graeme Dodds concluded: “In working with RSHP we had access to some of the most imaginative and forward thinking professionals in the world. We would like to thank them for their ongoing commitment and contribution to the scheme.”
The 145 homes at Oxley Woods will be in 10 different designs and houses will be available with two, three, four and five bedrooms.
