Your land - narrow sites

Narrow block. Real presence.

Width is a constraint. Character is not.

Careful zoning, borrowed light, dormers and voids let a slim frontage arrive with real presence - without the corridor-and-garage sameness narrow blocks usually get.

Design moves for slim frontages

How a narrow plan gets its light

Vertical volume replaces horizontal sprawl: a cathedral ceiling over the living, light wells and voids drawing sun deep into the plan, and the garage kept from dominating the street face.

  • Cathedral volume where floor area is tight
  • Light from above - dormers, voids, high glazing
  • A street face led by the home, not the garage
