Learning to Windsurf
LEARNING TO WINDSURF, KITESURF & STAND UP PADDLE T he Official Test Centre (OTC) is a purpose-built centre with the clear goal to showcase windsurfing, kitesurfing and stand up paddling, and provide access to these fast growing sports for everyone. Housing all the major brands under one roof, the concept of the centre is to enable its clients to test and compare the latest designs for themselves in favourable conditions. The centre’s friendly approachable staff are also well informed of all the latest trends (such as foiling), testing for international magazines and hosting national events throughout the year. They are on hand to provide impartial advice and ensure you use the kit that is right for you.
With its affiliated RYA / AALA accredited school (the Osprey Training Centre) the OTC can provide tuition in the three water sports at every level, from the complete beginner to those wishing to hone their advanced techniques. They have a vast stock of new and used kit in their on-site shop, plus any spares that are required. As such, the OTC puts windsurfing, kitesurfing and stand up paddling firmly on the map in one of the most prominent watersports arenas in the marine leisure industry today.

We are a local design-led architectural studio based in Dorchester, with projects in Dorset and the surrounding counties, as well as a number of London projects. Our work covers a wide range of sectors and design services of varying scales and levels of complexity, from simple extensions to larger masterplans and site developments.
Sustainability and a specific response to each site inform much of our approach to architecture, seeking contextual, contemporary design solutions which optimise the opportunities for low-energy design as well as great places to live and work.
All of our projects are led by qualified architects and all projects are developed with 3D software offering clients realistic visualisations throughout the design process. We would love to hear from you in relation to your design ambitions or future project opportunities.
