Project
The Mead Quarter is a mixed-use residential development in Bedminster, Bristol, designed as part of the Temple Quarter regeneration initiative. Located on previously underused brownfield land, the scheme delivers 43 affordable homes alongside a café, gym, retail spaces, and offices. Its stepped massing and beige brick façade respond sensitively to the neighbouring Totterdown Escarpment, preserving key views while enhancing the streetscape. Ground-level activation and accessible public routes connect the site to the city centre, promoting walkability and community integration.
Project
This sectional perspective demonstrates how different functions are layered vertically to optimise space and performance. Commercial and leisure uses occupy the ground floor, while upper levels accommodate flexible office space and residential units. Green roofs and internal courtyards improve sustainability, while circulation and fire strategy follow guidance for buildings over 18 metres. The design balances technical compliance with placemaking, creating a resilient, inclusive, and visually coherent addition to Bristol’s evolving urban landscape.
