Natural Woodland Inspires Egham Development

We’re pleased to confirm that plans have been submitted for a residential development in Egham, Surrey that will bring forward 34 high-quality homes on a brownfield site.

Currently overgrown and featuring disused industrial buildings, the site sits within the local allocation plan and has been earmarked for new homes.

Our proposal seeks to create 24 one-, two- and three-bed apartments and 10 three- and four-bed houses, each with private parking and outdoor space, together with a cycle store and two communal playspaces, one of which is a forest play area.

The design has drawn inspiration from the site’s existing wooded nature, as our director, Oliver Lowrie explains: “The site is densely populated with mature trees, so the development’s design has been carefully curated to retain as many of these as possible, including two key clusters identified in our ecologist’s report. It also respects the natural elements of the landscape, so simple forms and angles are mixed with natural materials to create high-quality homes that blend seamlessly with the surroundings.

“The other key design principle was to restore connectivity. Currently, the site only has once access point, so we have introduced a second point along the eastern boundary which will create a natural road and pathway through the site, giving it a more residential feel.”
