JIA's design for 14 apartments in Clevedon is evolving to increase its impact on the street scene. At the planning application stage the new link between the original villas was intended to be clad in zinc. This was a step too far for the council and render was accepted as an alternative.
The new developers for the site are keen to enhance the marketability of the scheme and have asked JIA to explore an upgrade in materials, working with visualisers JD3D.
An S73 application has been submitted to North Somerset Council to remove masonry paint from Richmond and Lima Villas and repair the stonework beneath. The render on the link is shown to be replaced with a natural random limestone cladding. Further consideration is being given to interpreting traditional stone cornices and string courses in folded zinc.
