Futures Forum: Knowle relocation project: PegasusLife proposals >>> Where is the innovative, sympathetic, green design?
The public relations blurb on their website promises all sorts:
Futures Forum: Knowle relocation project: the PegasusLife 'vision' >>> >>> "We strive to make all our projects unique, relevant and inspiring"
But, actually, all we've been promised for Knowle is pretty much the same as at other developments.
This retirement village in Harpenden is the latest from PegasusLife:
Complete with an 'orangery':
Park House, Harpenden, Hertfordshire - PegasusLife
It looks remarkably similar to the 'unique, relevant and inspiring' buildings being proposed at Knowle:
Rejected: EDDC refuses care facility plans for Sidmouth HQ site - Latest Sidmouth and Ottery News - Sidmouth Herald
EDDC will not cite loss of light at Knowle planning appeal - Latest Sidmouth and Ottery News - Sidmouth Herald
Although the developer has taken down any such images from its dedicated pages:
Sidmouth, Devon - PegasusLife
Another likeness is that PegasusLife appealed with the Harpenden application:
Developer likely to appeal over rejection of Harpenden retirement home plan - St Albans and Harpenden News - Herts Advertiser
But what is clear is that there is not much very good building going on:
