Shoeburyness Outlook Buildings by HawkinsBrownHawkinsBrown have completed a landmark new-build residential development for GladeDale Homes in Shoeburyness, a small seaside town located at the mouth of the Thames Estuary in South East England.
Shoeburyness was an army town until the 1980s and the ex-garrison land is now part of a major regeneration programme being implemented by Southend on Sea Council.
HawkinsBrown were appointed by GladeDale Homes to develop a signature piece of architecture for phase 3 of the programme, a prestigious location neighbouring Grade II listed buildings which abuts the shore, giving spectacular views of the coastline.
Having rejected initial proposals from a local architect Steve Kearney, Head of Design at the Local Authority, enlisted the services of HawkinsBrown to produce a quality contemporary design, which would act as a beacon for future development phases.
The shoreline location and coastal views were a determining factor in the design of the scheme, along with the consideration to provide sunlight in all the primary habitable rooms.
The inclusion of outside space within the blocks remained a constant consideration throughout the development of the scheme.
The ability to connect to the external environment from within the buildings was a priority.
