BRICK AWARDS 2019 WINNERS BRICK AWARDS 2019 INDIVIDUAL HOUSING DEVELOPMENT Kenwood Lee House – One of the core principles behind the design of Kenwood Lee House is harmony and homogeneity with the rich architectural heritage of the Highgate Conservation Area. Maintaining a fastidious attention to detail, the house is conceived as a contemporary interpretation of a double fronted suburban villa. Designed by Cousins & Cousins, the brick detailing pays homage to the prevalent arts & crafts movement in the surrounding area. The façade is made up of Bemmel Blue stock clay brick, manufactured by Wienerberger and chosen for its light textured appearance, the brickwork compliments yet contrasts with the traditional vernacular stock brick found in the area.
