North Somerset council picked designer of last year’s prize-winning Goldsmith Street for 52-home project

Mikhail Riches has won planning for 52 Passivhaus-certified homes near Bristol after being selected through the Greater London Authority’s ADUP2 framework.

The Stirling Prize-winner was appointed to the West Country project in July 2019 following a competitive tender process using the framework.
