Spaces - An Interactive Community

How to create a loop while insuring peace when needed?


Residential:

The area is in the pricing range between 350,000-500,000£. Having social housing/low cost homes would break the City centre social and financial barrier.


Who?


1 Bed: 2 Possibilities -> Single (30%) - Married or Civil Partnership (20%)


2 Bed: 2 Possibilities -> Lone parent with 1 child (15%) - Parents with 1 child (20%)


3 Bed: 2 Possibilities -> Families with 2 children (15%) - Families with 3 children (5%)


Data retrieved from DIGIMAPS


Why?


This area in Peckham need low-cost housing to help the community evolve. The 1 Beds are needed the most as the percentages show. As this project requires 30 dwellings. I will create:

20 x 1 Beds

5 x 2 Beds

5 x 3 Beds
