A project showcasing bricks from Hanson UK has scooped first prize in the ‘best housing development 6 to 25 units’ category at the 2012 Brick Development Association (BDA) awards.
Horsted Park in Chatham, Medway, Kent, uses the company’s Chelsea Smoked Red and Dark Moroccan Smooth bricks. It is a mixed tenure scheme where the houses feature an unusual two-and-a-half storey design and an original protruding brick feature.
The judges said: “This reasonably sized development is not ‘run of the mill’. While using traditional construction methods the designer has shown meticulous detailing and fantastic brickwork has been accomplished. It is hoped that this project will be an example to other developers.”
Horsted Park was designed by Proctor and Matthews for Countryside Properties.
The BDA awards recognise excellence in design and construction using bricks and are one of the longest established and most widely respected design awards in the UK.
Paul Lacey, Hanson UK’s head of sustainability, said: “We are delighted to have received recognition from the BDA for this project from among the hundreds that were submitted to this year’s awards.”
