The main framework of the project is to reinterpret the typological characteristics of the roundabout and establish a connection between the centre and the periphery. “From Non-places to Places.” The project has the potential to be implemented elsewhere in Manchester or any roundabout in the city. However, the methodological approach of the project is each time dependent on a reconsideration of the context and a design based on its concrete urban typologies and artefacts. The project will act as a catalyst for the architectural development of the urban area, as a new block, a hybrid, capable of being implemented in several places around the city.
