An innovative partnership between Council, developer and future residents, Marmalade Lane is a 42-home cohousing community in Orchard Park Cambridge.
Cohousing is a more mutually supportive form of living that is well-established in northern European countries and is gaining in popularity in the UK. TOWN, with its partner Trivselhus UK and supported by Mole Architects, was selected as the preferred developer by Cambridge City Council and Cambridge Cohousing in 2015, following a quality-driven, two-stage procurement process. Working closely with future residents, TOWN submitted a detailed planning application in late 2015, with planning permission being obtained in 2016. Construction of the project commenced in mid-2017, following completion of RIBA Stage 4 design, and was completed in late 2018. The development has been recognised as a leading example of best practice, winning several national planning and design awards and being featured in a number of government reports and guidance documents.
