Beechwood village, part of a wider masterplan extension for Basildon, is noteworthy as an exemplar for the design and delivery of housing within a context of a low-rise suburban development. While deceptively familiar in its scale and use of materials, it breaks the mould by delivering much higher densities than typical in surrounding developments, and attaining high levels of quality and sustainability through off-site modular construction.
比奇伍德村是巴希尔顿总体规划扩展的一部分,是在低层郊区开发背景下设计和交付住房的典范。虽然其规模和材料的使用似曾相识,但它打破常规,提供了远高于周边开发项目的典型密度,并通过场外模块化建筑实现了高水平的质量和可持续性。
Importantly, it also allows each owner to customise the design of their own home, creating an unusual level of variety. It has accomplished all this within a relatively constrained budget, reflecting the value of the local housing market, and has resulted in the creation of an environment with a real sense of place.
重要的是,它还允许每位业主定制自己的住宅设计,创造出不同寻常的多样性。它在相对有限的预算内完成了这一切,反映了当地住房市场的价值,并创造了一个具有真正地方感的环境。
