Sloan Street

RMI won the design competition for 13no. General needs apartments for Clanmil Housing Association in 2014 for a tight infill site at Sloan Street in Lisburn. Sandwiched between a church hall on one side and a commercial unit on the other the proposed design involved a linear apartment block with a street frontage to the eastern edge of the site and a private communal garden to the western edge of the site. In keeping with the surrounding context red brick, white painted render and fibre cement slate is used with zinc dormers helping to create some rhythm to the roofscape. The project was completed in 2017.
