	\| Here is the preview of U+I's ambitions to help house middle income earners in central London. Targeting the Mayor's ‘’London Living rents’’, U+I would like to develop their first building in the heart of London and in locations many of us can only dream of living. The self contained units are 19m2 and 24m2 but offer more storage space than most 2 bed flats in the open market. The flats will be for rent as U+I want to protect the affordability and control the generous amenity space where they will be encouraging renters to dwell and a communities to develop. Duncan Trench said ‘’We have spent a year developing the product and over 9 months discussing our ambitions with policy and decision makers in Local and Central Government. We are now actively looking for appropriate sites and seeking land owners who wish to work with us in partnership. This is ambitious but potentially a great story demonstrating how the private sector can help resolve the affordability issues in central London without subsidy or devaluing their land assets.’’		\| Here is the preview of U+I's ambitions to help house middle income earners in central London.

	“We have ideas on how we can deliver this solution from both a design and construction perspective. Ideas which we believe won’t compromise on quality. We’re not proposing a change in space standards or calling for a law change. We’re not asking for local authority funding – the plans would come at zero cost to the public purse. Instead we’d propose high-quality, rental-only, centrally-located, capped rent communities on under-used brownfield sites in London.”		“We have ideas on how we can deliver this solution from both a design and construction perspective.
