Projects
A legacy of world-class developments
With over 25 years of completed projects behind us, our legacy can be found around the globe, from the U.K. to South Africa to Greece.
Though our projects vary widely in style and scale, each and every one is designed to align with our core development principles of quality over quantity, enhancement of local community and ecological considerations.

Southsea Village
After working closely with residents and local authority over the past year, we are excited to share our approved plans for the development of the former St John’s College site, in the heart of Southsea, Portsmouth. The solution for the abandoned site will consist of 212 new apartments, with a 50/50 split between conversion of existing buildings, and new builds. With work beginning on site as soon as possible, the aim will be to complete the development in early 2026.
