Designed by Holmes Miller architects, Kibble Heights by Westpoint Homes is an exclusive 6 storey luxury development situated in the leafy heart of North Kelvinside in Glasgow’s West End.
Following demolition of a derelict 1950’s building on the site, the redevelopment contains 19 two- and three-bedroom apartments. Residents of the luxury penthouses can enjoy views over the Botanic Gardens from their private outdoor terraces. The lower ground floor contains 19 parking spaces with additional space for 24 bicycles.
Veitchi Frame provided the light gauge steel frame above the lower ground floor slab. By taking advantage of the benefits of MMC, early engagement with Veitchi Frame ensured any potential clash detection was identified early and savings could be made in foundation design. Speed in construction reduced prelim costs compared with traditional methods. Lift shafts, stairs, most of the internal walls and external sheathing was also included within the LGSF package.
