The project is located in Falmouth, UK. The site is the Falmouth Docks, located parallel to the primary commercial and social street in Falmouth. The scheme has two principle aims, firstly to reconnect the town with the docks by the creation of a new walkway and second to create a dramatic and memorable sense of arrival for tourists. All in all, hoping to put Falmouth back on the map as the main water sport and yachting destination in England.

Plan 1:1,000 The primary commercial and tourist route is completely disconnected from the harbour and the boats. Arriving into Falmouth via boat, car, ferry or by foot is not a pleasant experience and does not highlight Falmouthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s location and connection to the harbour. The project aims to reconnect these experiences with the harbour and create walkway for tourists and residence to enjoy Falmouth and the mooring boats. Brief:2B_Realise
