A living future, Redcliffe Park symbolises a bold new beginning for sustainable housing in the heart of Bristol, delicately balancing heritage and ingredients for a prosperous future. Lead architects, Groupwork, collaborated with McGregor Coxall and Hydrock to win the national design competition, presenting a resilient public realm scheme that envelopes 122 new dwellings – of which 40% are affordable – within a contemporary synergy of landscape, architecture, ecological design and cultural history. The community co-designed masterplan is a conscious and energetic proposal which aims to reference the Architectural language of Bristol’s past. Built form champions materials and strategies for a sustainable future while a landscaped public offering is built for daily amenity – bolstered by water attenuation, biodiversity, and communal agriculture initiatives. The block offers four points of entry to its inner courtyard, framing views of the iconic St. Mary Chapel and the river while unlocking traversable ground levels from East to West, and North to South.
