Guy Greenfield specified Vintage Blue Pavers from Baggeridge Brick to create parking areas and the roadway running the circumference of new Westwood Ho! development.
The picturesque community, which has also been shortlisted in the Brick Development Association Awards (BDA) category for Volume Housebuilder is complete with village green and period architecture so required bricks to further enhance the feel of the semi-rural setting.
Baggeridge's Oast Russet Sovereign Stock and Mellowed Red Sovereign Stock bricks were chosen to create traditional homes which blend in perfectly with the surrounding landscape.
The soft colours and texture of the stock bricks complement the stone and render work perfectly and help to create the village feel which many buyers desire.
Paul Hodgkinson, Baggeridge's national developer sales manager for housebuilders, commented: "Many developers are now creating whole villages which include schools, shops and other public buildings, so they want their homes to have an established, traditional feel, especially when set in the countryside.
"Mawsley Village is a great example of how we can help make luxurious, modern homes blend in with local surroundings, offering developers the ideal products for any scheme.".
