  • Infrastructure Along The Canal Edge
    Infrastructure Along The Canal EdgeSince it closed in 1960 the Corah complex in Leicester has been decaying in the same incremental way that it grew, this time at the hands of arson attacks and demolition. The site has changed dramatically over 150 years and will continue to do so. The proposal acts as a commentary on this incremental growth and decay. It looks to establish a durable, adaptable infrastructure that accommodates for future development, establishing a concrete plinth that new lightweight structures can be added to or removed from over time and a new bridge that links the city to the park.
  • Terracotta & Faience Factory
    Terracotta & Faience FactoryRIBA Part II - Year 1 - Design for a Terracotta & Faience Factory The proposal is for a cross-programmed facility aimed at cultivating and disseminating a culture of making and the cross-fertilisation of ideas and techniques. It explores the relationship between a ceramics manufacturer in Vauxhall & luxury apartments clad with those ceramics, engaging with the opportunity for making something in Vauxhall to feed the global city, interfacing and in dialogue with the encroaching giant of Nine Elms. The global city has a lust for handmade, a new ceramics factory taps into this market for luxury apartments clad with ceramics, coupling commercial with artisanal scale production. The factory supplies the global city with terracotta and faience, whilst the small-scale craftspeople who weave their way throughout the rest of the building engage in smaller scale production, providing one-off wares to furnish the same apartments.
