It will be a chance to learn more, meet us and ask questions.
We will be holding a workshop in the session as we want to hear from the community to help us design our community garden on Raynton Road. The plan is to transform an underused concrete plot into a vibrant, inclusive community
garden, creating a shared green space for local residents and the wider community. Despite its small size, the garden will provide a safe, welcoming, and low-maintenance environment that supports both people and wildlife.
We want to do more with less, to become a haven for plants, wildlife and people.
Do let us know if you’d like to join us sales@nakedhouse.org and we can share more details.
We hope to see you there.

Please help us win approval by submitting a letter of support now!

Meyer Green: Application Ref: 21/03247/OUT
We’re really proud of the designs by our architect OMMX who are members helped choose. The homes built simply but built well. In most cases they are readily extendable from 1 beds to 3 beds – meaning they can grow as people’s need grow.
One of the things we’re proudest of: they are super sustainable – which is good for the environment and good for people’s energy bills. We think it’s much more important to spend money getting these fundamentals right so our homes will keep on serving people and planet.
Thank you for your support – this is a crucial juncture for Naked House and your letter of support could really help make the difference.
Letters of support can be sent directly to the case officer at Enfield quoting application ref’s 21/03246/OUT, 21/03247/OUT, 21/03248/OUT) Lap-Pan.Chong@enfield.gov.uk
OR alternatively via the online planning portal – link below and using the application reference number for each site listed below https://new.enfield.gov.uk/services/planning/consultation-letters/

LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR ENFIELD NAKED HOUSE SCHEME:
I am writing to express my support for the Naked House housing scheme in Enfield. All homes will be 100% affordable – an important contribution to help address the affordability crisis in London.
As an innovative not-for-profit developer Naked House has prioritised many things people want in housing – generous space, a sense of community and quality materials – fundamentals often forgotten by developers.
The use of masonry allows these affordable homes to be sustainable which is good for the environment and good for people’s energy bills.
The principle that residents can adapt and expand their homes themselves is particularly welcome – an exciting prospect for the many potential custom-builders in the Borough who are not currently catered for.
In the midst of a climate and housing crisis I support the use of Council-owned land for building sustainable affordable homes. London and Enfield needs more positive, original homes of high architectural value such as these.
Yours sincerely,
[your name]

The Mayor has agreed to invest £500,000 to deliver 22 custom-built new and permanently affordable homes for first-time buyers across three sites in Enfield. The project will be delivered by Naked House – a group of Londoners who strip developments back to their bare essentials allowing communities to design and shape the homes they live in. This is the first time a community-led housing group has received funding from City Hall

Naked House is part of the team for the British Pavilion in this year’s Architecture Biennale in Venice.
The entrance to our room in the British Pavillion. A Home For Years, a good motto for Naked House.

We’re delighted to say that Naked House has been selected by New London Architecture as one of the winning entries in their high profile ‘New Ideas for Housing – International Ideas Competition’.
It’s a brilliant boost for us – we’ve already been featured in the press – Guardian and Dezeen.
We entered with Pitman Tozer Architects – who provided a great design, and Enfield Council – who supplied the land. We bring our members and custom-build process to the mix and it was this collaborative approach that strengthened our submission. More importantly it means we now have the team to deliver work towards delivering this in real life. We met this morning to discuss next steps, and as part of winning, we have a meeting booked with the GLA on how to put our ideas into practice.
Exciting times.
