Lyndhurst is a classic mixed development of tall towers, four-storey maisonettes and a sprinkling of houses.

The lower maisonette occupies the raised and lower ground floor.

These were then allocated to three maisonettes of varying plan and section, all served by a single common stair.

The upper maisonette, to be inhabited by the client, occupies the top two levels which are connected by a void.
