Welcome to Gabriel Square, a collection of award-winning townhouses, apartments and duplexes set around a landscaped garden square.
The landscape combines high-quality contemporary and traditional materials, with a beautiful selection of plants, creating an attractive and elegant setting.
At the heart of the development is a central square, which is designed to encourage both formal and informal relaxation. Here, you’ll find a backdrop of evergreens, open lawns with semi-mature trees and a mirrored Torus sculpture by award-winning sculptor David Harber, along with natural play elements for younger residents.
Small front gardens at lower and ground level separate the communal areas, with grasses and bamboos softening the more formal residential façades. To the rear, residences access either a private or communal garden via terraces.
Gabriel Square is a modern classic, with traditional materials such as natural French limestone adding a sense of lineage to the contemporary form. The development is designed to complement St Albans exquisite architecture at the same time as adopting a minimalist perspective.
Its 80 homes appear in unity with the development as a whole and the central garden square brings permeability, contributing towards the distinct sense of place. Gabriel Square’s beautiful urban gardens call to mind the classic examples of Georgian and Regency London, as well as the green spaces which characterise the city of St Albans.
