Glasgow East End Housing

Graham Square Housing
The competition in 1997 called for entrants to explore sustainable, energy-conscious and ecological solutions in providing mixed-tenure housing in houses and flats. This scheme maximizes free energy gain and minimises heat loss through low ‘E’ glass and the use of glazed stair tower buffer zones which collect winter heat and are thermostatically-ventilated in summer.

PagePark Architects worked with MPHA to produce the Graham Square housing and streetscaping project, completed in 1999. This is in the east end of Glasgow, just off the Gallowgate. This project was to create a new neighbourhood, with 3 new housing developments, involving 3 architects.
