Posted by Ed Cotton The UK is covered with brick terraced houses; they are part of the nation's character.  It would be easy for architect to just knock down a row of these houses, put new ones up in their place, or even build a high rise.

At Chimney Pot Park in Salford, the architects tried something different. They created a new concept, "The Upside Down House"; reversing the original format of the 1910 homes, placing the bedroom downstairs and the living room upstairs.


Sometimes, with ideas, it's often easy to tear it down start again, but re-imagining what already exists, can often be a more powerful way to go.
