New Hall, Harlow, is one of the country's leading examples of
contemporary residential development.
The project encompasses a total of almost 2,000 units
and each phase represents cutting-edge technology with
state of the art materials and building techniques being
utilised for the first time in many instances. The project
has received much publicity from the national press and
has been visited by senior government officials who
regard the development as a prime example of a
high-quality and sustainable PPG3 development.
In addition to utilising MMC, our phase also leads in
energy-efficiency measures and our achievements in this
field were recognised when one of our housetypes was
awarded the coveted "What House?" house of the year
Gold award in November 2005.
Our development phase of 74 units has also obtained a
"CABE" gold standard award.
We are, however, equally adept at developing volume
sites that utilise standard product, having only recently
completely revamped our entire house range.
This Case Study illustrates:
- CALA's ability and willingness to be entirely flexible and
innovative in approach to design.
- CALA's ability to successfully produce a new product
for a given environment.
- CALA's ability to welcome and master completely new
development techniques.
