In developing the architectural language of the estate, inspiration was drawn from the surrounding neighbourhood, with its mix of classic Georgian and contemporary design. The architects chose to reflect these 2 references in an attractive contemporary classic style. Window proportions were preserved, shutters retained and a clean, white expression of the dominant portion of each building is evident.
