LUC was appointed by Peabody in 2012 to help deliver thirty-three new affordable homes on a site close to Whitechapel Road in London. The site was previously used as a Jewish maternity hospital in the early 20th Century, founded by Alice Model, an important Jewish philanthropist. The existing buildings were in a dilapidated state, remaining unoccupied since 2005.
The completed development incorporates affordable rented and shared ownership properties only, for residents of Tower Hamlets who are in housing need. The homes vary in size from one-bedroom flats to three-bedroom courtyard houses, and four-bedroom maisonettes entered directly from the street.
The form of the development emerged through a careful urban analysis, and was sensitively designed to site within the local context, considering natural light and views across the City of London. Peabody were keen to commemorate the local history of the site, and this is reflected through the use banded lettering inscribed into the masonry walls at street level describing the history of the Jewish Maternity Hospital.
LUC was responsible for the design of the hard and soft landscape, including a central planted courtyard, seating areas, a small play area for young families, and a communal rooftop garden.

Gov. Neil Abercrombie and the Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) celebrated the substantial completion of the H-1 Freeway Rehabilitation Project at a dedication ceremony at Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum, overlooking the freeway. The project reconstructed and resurfaced one of the most heavily traveled corridors in the state and added an extra travel lane in both directions in less than 11 months. New LED street lighting, added drainage, and glare screens were also installed to improve highway safety.
Upon its completion in the 1760s, the Great Courtyard, designed by Augustin Ehrensvärd, served as the main square of the fortress. The houses surrounding the courtyard included the fortress commandant’s house and the main guard house.
The administrative centre of the fortress was given a suitably impressive architectural setting: the buildings were carefully placed around the courtyard, and some of them had concave facades which created a false perspective, making the courtyard look grander and more impressive.
The Great Courtyard was badly damaged in bombardments during the Crimean War in 1855, but it is still an impressive sight. The grave of Augustin Ehrensvärd lies in the middle of the courtyard.

#30 *almost 1/3 towards completion*
Firstly, I hope I have spelt her name right, please mail me if I haven't :)
*Ta for the mail, Kirsty, corrected :)*
Kirsty works in Lush in Belfast and my smaller brat is a big fan of this gorgeous smelling store. We were in Belfast yesterday and I received a text from my kiddo asking me to go in the store and take a pic of the girl with the amazing hair...and yes, it was awesome! The amount of management this multi-coloured 'do must take. She was a bit taken aback at my request for a pic but very generously complied and we chatted a bit as I shot. Her brother is on Flickr and I gave her a wee card to let her see where she could find herself. So thank you for the pix, Kirsty, hope you find them :)
Kirsty is my my stranger #30 in the 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at www.100strangers.com
