The brief

Landscape-sensitive housing

JMS employed advanced structural engineering techniques in the Briscoe Lane development, ensuring the project met modern standards while preserving the natural environment. Utilising innovative 'no-dig' construction methods, the team was able to create pathways without disturbing the existing trees, maintaining the landscape's integrity.

Engineering response

Thermal performance and natural light

The structural design also incorporated enhanced thermal efficiency, with the properties benefiting from optimised insulation and strategically placed rooflights that maximise natural light. These techniques ensured the homes were both energy-efficient and structurally sound, blending traditional aesthetics with modern performance.

Delivery detail

Award-shortlisted engineering

The project's thoughtful engineering has not only attracted significant interest from homebuyers but also earned a spot on the shortlist for the ProCon property and construction award 2022.
