Sutton Dwellings, Social housing complex in Chelsea, United Kingdom.
The Sutton Dwellings consist of 14 residential buildings arranged in a W-shaped layout along Elystan Street, featuring red brick facades and internal courtyards.
William Richard Sutton, a mail delivery business owner, allocated funds to establish the Sutton Model Dwellings Trust in 1900, leading to construction of these buildings in 1913.
The buildings reflect a Victorian philanthropic movement addressing housing needs, providing 764 apartments for low-income families in an area marked by social diversity.
The residential complex, now managed by Clarion Housing Group, maintains its original purpose of providing affordable housing while undergoing renovations to preserve its structures.
The development occupies 4.5 acres of land and incorporates architectural elements matching neighboring buildings, including Norman Shaw influences in rooflines and overall design.
