The radical modern design of the Olive Mount project provides a central covered street to provide a convivial social space. It forms part of a wider scheme integrating mixed tenure development around a landscaped linear park.

The Olive Mount project rehouses residents from high-rise blocks into a new residential complex including apartments and bungalows.
The radical modern design of the sheltered accommodation focuses on a central enclosed street which is landscaped to provide a convivial, social environment, protected from the elements, but naturally ventilated.
The scheme forms part of a wider masterplan including public gardens and private spaces, integrating the development with the wider neighbourhood. The design was developed following intensive involvement of the future residents and the local community.
