BESTWICK SKATE PARK NOTTINGHAM
A landmark by function, size and materials, the building creates a contradiction of mass and form by using heavy materials in a lightweight structure. Robust materials; concrete, rusted steel and stone form a harsh landscape into a fluid connection of the train station and lace market. Sympathetic to sightlines and sustainability, it respects city vistas and views to landmarks. Reusing a portion of excavated spoil into the rubble roof not only reduces overall carbon footprint, but defines the inner-city characteristic by reclaiming urban green space.
