Newlands Residential Masterplan

Glasgow

We were appointed by CALA Homes (West) Ltd to design detailed Planning proposals for a 500 unit residential masterplan proposal in the Newlands area of Glasgow. The proposals include the retention, restoration and conversion of the principal listed building fronting Newlands Road, and a separate Listed Building Application was submitted.

The Masterplan creates a hierarchy of street character types with emphasis on the quality of the public realm. The residential mix incorporates a diverse range of dwelling types including 3-storey townhouses, mews development, flats and terraced housing. Due to economic circumstances the project did not proceed beyond the Planning Stage but the proposals demonstrate how a high quality residential environment can be created on an industrial/ brownfield site, and seamlessly integrate with the existing urban grain.
