Forth Valley community care village

Article Abstract:

Forth Valley community care village was designed by Sir Norman Foster & Partners for Central Scotland Healthcare. It is to be used as a halfway house for patients recovering from mental illness. The building is designed as a crescent of identical six bedroom houses, which surround the village green style garden. The houses are open plan with high vaulted ceilings and top ventilated light. Natural materials were used such as stone and wood and standard products such as windows were selected from a catalogue, but installed in an unusual way to provide a glazed facade.
