Bracewell Stirling has been a key partner of Compass Building & Construction Services in delivering affordable housing, since its formation in 2009. Helping to shape developments in communities across the Highlands, supporting the company with the conception of the site layouts, the design of the houses and developing energy efficient outcomes for the householder.
Most recently, Bracewell provided architectural services for Phase 2 of the Teandallon development in Evanton, where Compass celebrated the significant milestone of completing its 1,000th affordable home. This latest phase delivered 24 affordable homes and 8 private homes, following on from Phase 1 in March 2023, which saw 40 homes for rent and mid-market rent completed.
Amanda MacRitchie, Senior Partner, commented: “We were delighted to join Compass in celebrating the delivery of their 1,000th affordable home, marked by the handover of the second phase of housing in Evanton. Our 15-year + partnership with Compass has supported the delivery of sites all over the Highlands including such remote communities such as Gairloch, Lairg and Dornie, as well as in larger settlements including Inverness, Tain, Dornoch, Alness, Evanton and Invergordon.”
Looking ahead, the practice is already well into design proposals supporting Compass to deliver their next set of affordable homes across several new sites in the coming months including Ullapool and Lochcarron.
