Croydon Council’s private development company Brick by Brick has appointed the architects to deliver new homes on 50 infill sites across the borough
Sarah Wigglesworth, Mae, Mary Duggan Architects, Hayhurst and Co, Gort Scott, Stitch, Denizen Works, Archio, Threefold and Ruff Architects have all won projects as the Brick by Brick rolled out its latest 500-home development phase.
They are joined by Common Ground Architecture, the growing former in-house architect team at Croydon Council, which will take on five infill sites in Waddon and south Croydon as well as co-ordinating the masterplan for 27 sites in New Addington and Fieldway.
Another plot at New Addington and Fieldway is set to go out to competition.
Brick by Brick is planning to build more than 1,000 ‘high quality’ new homes on council-owned infill sites and wants to achieve 50 per cent affordable housing across all developments as part of its £270 million Smaller Site Programme.
Colm Lacey, chief executive of Brick by Brick, said: “We’re delighted to continue our model of working with the best architectural talent, irrespective of size of practice, to deliver these sites.
“We carefully select practices who can demonstrate expertise and innovation in the specific type of site we are working on.”
Planning applications for the latest batch of housing will be submitted from December 2019.
