Living and Building in Chessington

Chessington takes its name from the Anglo-Saxon "Cissan dūn," and remained a small village until major housing development transformed it after the Second World War into a substantial suburb.

Diagram X brings genuinely modern AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) into a neighbourhood where post-war family houses now sit alongside extensive green belt land to the south.

Planning in Chessington

Chessington splits distinctly between settled suburban streets to the north and protected green belt land to the south, with the Bonesgate Stream and surrounding woodland shaping how new development can sit within the landscape.

Diagram X designs each scheme to respond to this particular transition between suburb and open countryside.
