Cavell Court transforms the former Edith Cavell hospital site in Uccle into housing, shops, a polyclinic and a shared garden. The photographs read the new block at several scales: its place in the street, the rhythm of brick and stone façades, inhabited balconies, reflective garden edges and the crafted timber interiors of its common spaces.
