Artist Damien Hirst has unveiled plans to build hundreds of landmark eco-homes on the north Devon coast.

Hirst, the richest artist in the world, has appointed London firm MRJ Rundell & Associates for the scheme, at Winsham Farm, near Illfracombe, close to his family home.

Architect Mike Rundell of MRJ Rundell Associates, addressed a meeting to discuss Ilfracombe鈥檚 southern extension last week.

The extension plan, which could include up to 1,000 new homes, a primary school, sports facilities, small business units and a medical centre on 32ha of land, is already well advanced but was not known to include Hirst鈥檚 involvement until now.

Rundell told the meeting: 鈥淚鈥檓 a representative of Damien Hirst. He owns 40% of the land we are talking about.

鈥淎s you know, he is a very successful artist and has very high ambitions for this project. He has a horror of building anonymous, lifeless buildings. He wants these houses to be the kind of homes he would want to live in.鈥�

Rundell said Hirst wants the development to regenerate Ilfracombe and create a new gateway to the town.

鈥淒amien is a local developer,鈥� he said. 鈥淗e lives locally, shops locally, owns local businesses and his children go to local schools.

鈥淗e cares about Ilfracombe and wants this project to have a positive effect on the town.

鈥淗e wants these buildings to be landmarks that will stand the test of time and create a blueprint for quality, environmentally sustainable developments across the country.

鈥淚lfracombe will be a pioneer and Damien is incredibly excited about it.鈥�
