About Materials and Concept

Mandatory in the housing scheme for this area is the usage of nautical related building materials like wood or the usage of dark colors 

How about these 21e century state of the art reinvented traditional materials which leave no questions about if this is contemporary architecture

Using concrete in situ casted referring to the old factory (Limekiln) products. This beautiful product has a texture with a roughness that fits the site wel 

Cooked wood black cladding, extraordinary how by the heating proces this fast growing woods are made sustainable like hardwood
