Whalebones

Whalebones will be a new-build residential scheme that aims to breathe new life into a currently inaccessible, but idyllic hillside site, with the profound commitment to preserving the sites rich history and ecological integrity. It will provide sensitive solution appropriate to conservation area.

This masterplan is designed to blend the architectural forms in to the natural landscape, whilst responding to the surrounding context and retaining an existing sense of openness. Hill first brought forward plans for this site in the London Borough of Barnet in 2019, and after being refused, they sought for another design to realise this sympathetic project which seeks to integrate itself into this special location. 

Whalebones embodies a harmonious integration of history, community, and nature. It seeks to become a beacon of architectural excellence and ecological responsibility, breathing new life into a hidden gem, enabling it to flourish for generations to come.
