Urban Housing

The proposal introduces a flexible, modular housing system that reinterprets Glasgow’s tenement tradition for contemporary living. A structural stone façade grounds the building in its historic context, while a steel frame allows for future reconfiguration. This adaptability ensures the architecture can evolve with social and demographic shifts.

Unit diversity supports a wide range of residents, promoting inclusivity and resilience. Shared gardens, co-housing blocks, and mews foster a strong sense of community. Internally, the project balances formality and informality, structured street frontages give way to more intimate, expressive interiors.

By combining modular design with reclaimed materials and contextual sensitivity, the scheme becomes a living, evolving framework that connects past and present while anticipating the needs of the future
