F oresee
The project is about a culture and creativity centre in Chatham Intra, called Foresee. Foresee includes a bunch of studios, a large workshop, exhibition space and a theatre. Outside area has a tent structure, providing an open door space for people to sell their crafts. In the middle of the structure, there lies an existing wall, kept from the original structure. Now it serves as a remnant of the past and a parting from the middle. The Left and right side is divided according to the spaces’ noise levels. In this scheme, people on both sides of the building are connected with two bridges, crossing over the existing wall.

This design project aims to provide Chatham with a Wellbeing Centre that integrates nature with support to tackle Medway’s current mental health crisis. The current site of Chatham shows signs of neglect, with unused warehouses and vast empty concrete spaces. The plan is to regenerate the abandoned car showroom by recladding the existing front and replacing the rear empty warehouses, with two extensions embracing a living courtyard, overlooked by verandas that lead off into a host of different spaces. Natural light and a connection with nature are the focuses of the building, with the use of sustainable materials, organic colours, and comfortable furnishings. The transparency of the building allows visual connections to the activities within, provoking public curiosity, awareness and possible involvement. This project also expands outside the given site to tackle some of the nearby unused concrete spaces.

The proposed design is for a Chatham Education Centre. It consists of three irregularly shaped, stacked units, with the second block facing the river views. The mass timber structure seeks to produce a sustainable, low-carbon building and enables the building to contribute to the circular economy. The exposed lattice CLT beam and columns support the cantilevered structure of the building while also contributing to the interior aesthetic.
The building’s layout is founded on the need to educate the community while fostering interaction between users of all ages and backgrounds.

The Shipwrights of Chatham
This regenerative project celebrates Chatham’s rich dockyard cultural heritage and positions its re-establishment of water based trades. These ethical and sustainable activities can recapture the intergenerational pride of Chatham’s former glories.
Tertiary employment will be offered through the services that support the newly created engaging public spaces. Whilst, the regeneration of shipwright skills and the establishment of modern methods of construction expertise, centred around environmentally friendly products and transportation methods, can establish Chatham as a centre of excellence for making and mending. Therefore, this innovative project will purposefully re-establish Chatham as an essential hub of culture, service, and logistical importance.

The Gallery aims to bring people together over fun and exciting activities by encouraging them to engage with various arts and cultures and promoting being active through skating.
The proposal seeks to achieve this by introducing multiple design workshops to the site, educating and promoting the arts, and providing a new multidiscipline indoor skatepark that can be transformed into an exhibition space, in addition to the other supporting areas such as an art shop, a skate shop and a cafe overlooking the High Street and mixed use space .
The design utilises the existing brick building on the site and adds to it with a new polycarbonate structure that is inpired by the industrial history of the dockyard and the forms of the old warehouses.

Nourish Intra tmudure@gmail.com linkedin: Toma David Mudure instagram: tdmatelier michaeldobrien0712@ gmail.com
A scheme dedicated towards the citizens of Chatham, for the community by the community. An urban farm with a mission of community lead cooking, growing and local events.
Nourish intra will be skillfully run by the asylum seekers to reside in Anchorage House.
Nourish is built for the people, by the people, providing activities inclusive of all circumstance, enforcing that architecture is a public service.
Chatham Culture Palace is an adaptive re-use of the former Grays of Chatham car showroom and its associated warehouses. Transforming these disused spaces into an arts centre, it celebrates the area’s vibrant culture of creativity and ensures that art and culture remains accessible to local residents in the face of the closure of UCA’s Rochester campus. The proposal consists of an art gallery dedicated to local artists, as well as a fashion and textiles studio, offering a National Diploma qualification in Fashion, Textiles and Costume.
As exemplified by the highstreet elevation, the design of my proposal aims to highlight and celebrate Intra’s unique character, history and culture. Drawing on the area’s cultural heritage, such as its relationship with the river and its association with the LGBTQ+ community, I developed a vocabulary of patterns, symbols and colours.

Intra Hub the new education and exprience centre situated on Chatham Intra aims to provide workshops and classes dedicated to the creative arts. Classes in this new facility looks to bring together the community of Chatham and increase employment in the area for those with little expirence and individuals who do not thrive in the typical academic settings.The building holds an art gallery and food court which the courses work for. Food in the food court is cooked by the catering course. The market in the hall is full with fruit and veg from the agriculture course, the art gallery is filled with craft and design items from the craft course.
My intention was to create a facility that shows your interest for the area of subject and hopefully gain employment. It is a breath of fresh air and encourages those who would like to study in a non- traditional enviroment for education.
