The process
This project's name, "Tetris", was of course inspired by the 80s Game which we all know. While the designer was designing this building, we came to realise that it sort of resembles the Game it self in some art, which stuck to us and we kept the name since.
The site levels were an interesting challenge, varying across the site by about 3 to 4 metres. Some clever design arrangements brought about a level access to the front (along the street facade) and a lower level car park entrance accessed through the rear of the site.
The form of the building was kept minimal by applying contemporary aluminium projecting window frames on a simple red brick mass.
The proposal consists of a mix of 1/2/3 bedroom apartments with generous area sizes. The overall scheme is compliant with Manchester’s own Residential Standards guidelines, making it a key regeneration project in the local context.
