Similar to the original Craigentinny House itself, the building has no defined front and rear elevations, but with every elevation treated similarly as they all address a public space of equal importance, be it existing or proposed. The result is a unique inward looking development which hosts a series of distinctive gables throughout.
Prominent throughout the Restalrig area in both historic and modern developments, the gable is something we wished to capture within our proposals to help integrate the development within its historic setting. A series of contemporary gables which together form the mass of the proposals offer a sympathetic approach to a development within a sensitive environment.
