We are honoured to have been selected, alongside our project team, Citizen Design Bureau, Office Sian, LDA Design, Heyne Tillett Steel and XCO2 as part of Be First’s ambitious new architecture framework together with 7 other exemplary design teams. We are looking forward to supporting Be First with their vision to build up to 4,000 high-quality, socially rented homes in Barking and Dagenham.
We are also delighted to be collaborating with Be First on the third phase of the Gascoigne West masterplan and to be part of the landmark redevelopment of the Gascoigne neighbourhood. Our proposals provide 137 high-quality, inclusive new homes for rent, shared gardens for residents and a new co-designed community park delivered in collaboration with Citizens Design Bureau and LDA Design.
The scheme focusses on improving the local streetscape, including opening up new connections and greening of routes that link together various neighbourhoods within the estate, earlier phases of the masterplan, and the nearby River Roding. Sustainable, future proof and healthy design sits at the heart of the design approach, and Be First’s design aspirations for a well-connected, high-quality, net zero neighbourhood. This will be the second project that Haworth Tompkins has undertaken for Be First in Barking, and we look forward to working together again.
