Our design approach

Our approach to the High Barnet development is driven by a design-led vision that draws inspiration from the site’s unique setting, history and surroundings. We aim to create proposals with character that reflect the local context, transforming the site into a place that is welcoming, sustainable and accessible to all

A series of key principles are informing the design of the development, including:

An improved public realm – Improving the area around High Barnet station, with new connections to existing roads and pavements and new walking and cycling routes through the site and up and down the hill.

Accessibility – We want this development to make High Barnet station and its surroundings safer, more accessible and more welcoming.

Interchange – Improving the links between the station, public transport and active travel routes.

Public, open space – The creation of new areas of public space on unused, brownfield land.

Sustainability – Creating a sustainable, green development which retains existing woodland and increases biodiversity
