Why Newington Green

Newington Green's housing pattern shapes the design

Newington Green is Georgian fragments, Victorian terraces. The dominant stock — georgian and victorian terraces — has specific constraints and opportunities for mansard roof extensions. Side returns sit better on bay-fronted Victorian terraces than on detached 1930s semis. Mansards work where the existing roofscape supports them. We design to the block, not the brochure.
