As the site is situated in a medium risk flood zone area, the architecture and design of the building must be constructed with this in mind which will result in the excess water from causing any damage to the property. Below are some images of flood resilient architecture that have been used as inspiration for the project.

The location of the site falls within a conservation area which means certain aspects must be met for this development to go ahead. Kelham Island is an old industrial area and a lot of the builders are old red brick. Below are some images of properties that fall with the conservation area at Kelham Island that have been used as inspiration for the project to maintain that this development is in keeping with its surroundings.

The proposed design will incorporate a mix of residential and commercial to maximise profit and provide a greater asset to the community in Kelham Island. Below are some images of residential and commercial mix properties that have been used as inspiration for the project.
