Carpenters Estate Masterplan shortlisted for Pineapple Award!

The Pineapples awards for place recognise built and future projects and initiatives that make a positive impact on places and people.

The Carpenters Masterplan project involves the creation of a resident-led masterplan for up to 2,022 new and replacement mixed tenure homes (inc 50% affordable); new park and green spaces; a new home for the Building Crafts college; new retail, workspace and commercial uses; a hotel and a re-provided pub.

Working collaboratively for the London Borough of Newham’s wholly owned Housing Company Populo, Tibbalds led and managed the design team through the masterplan stages as well as providing strategic placemaking and planning advice to the project.

The masterplan was developed by joint masterplan leads Proctor and Matthews and Metropolitan Workshop, closely supported by LDA on public realm and landscape, XC02 on energy and environment, CampbellReith on environmental assessment and transport, and Mott Macdonald as project manager and cost consultant. Make:good led on the engagement for the project including setting up and running the Dovetail as a hub for collaborating with the local community and running a programme of events and training including a particular focus on listening to the views of young people and providing them with skills and training in the built environment. Other members of the team included ECD, PJA, PRD and Elementa.

Good luck to all of the team! We are looking forward to the live-streamed awards assessments, which will run 25^th – 27^th February.
