Sous les pavés, la plage’ // ‘Beneath the paving stones, the beach.’ graffiti from Paris, May ‘68 The Urban Beach Corridor is a manifesto that employs urban densification as a tactic to revert controlled spaces. It is an architecture of resistance that emulates the liminal quality of the beach to challenge Coventry’s City Council’s waterpark ambition.

Structural StructuralStairs StairsConstruction Construction
Blurring the natural and man-made, the Urban Beach Corridor diverts and de-culverts the city’s hidden river. By managing water above the surface, the Urban Beach Corridor generates oppositional public realm for leisure while acting as a critical water control apparatus for the city. Abstracting from iconic seaside typologies and the roman aqueduct, the project aspire to develop a new form of architectural language and aesthetic that does not lapse into a vernacular style.

Cov e n t r y where BEACH means so much more
The project adopts a holistic design approach through the exploration of double curvature form active structures to satisfy the increasingly complex demands of sustainability criteria. Concurrently, this addresses the integration of the upper deck with the structural viaduct for a more coherent architectural expression and structural integrity. Offering visitors the opportunity to temporarily invert the codes of conduct that govern their everyday lives, the Urban Beach Corridor is a necessary piece of green infrastructure that symbolises liminality, exoticism and pleasure.
Selected Works II Envisioning Castlegate
'When faced with a totally new situation, we tend always to attach ourselves to the objects, to the flavor of the most recent past. We look at the present through a rear-view mirror. We march backwards into the future.'

Marshall McLuhan, The Medium is the Massage A creative survey to provoke a reaction from people around Castlegate region and people-elected locations throughout Sheffield has enabled conversations and encouraged connections and reflections to be made upon the past and the future of Castlegate from the vocal public.

tectonics & structural development models
During the planning phases of the impending festival, the observatory 1: 500 tectonic model route as a folly retains the aesthetic nature of a construction site despite the 1: 200 joint detail and structural study model absence of the scaffolds- provoking suspence in visitors to question the utilising tension and compression elements, the glulam future potential of the site. structure becomes inherently rigid yet flexible as flexing loads (bending moments) are transmitted as tension and compression loads along the length of each strut.
Castlegate as a Shifting Landscape During average weather conditions when festivals and events are not being carried out on site, Castlegate presents itself as a Third space- enabling interaction among the public and presenting inclusive opportunities for the public to work with the in-residence creatives for the impending festival.

Castlegate is envisioned as a Flood Zone 3b land where water will be stored in times of flood and heavy rain events. The site is adaptable to differing rates of flood level:

“ Through a hybridized expression of contemporary public art that fuses art with urban design, a common exchange in the city is revealed as a theatre of the everyday.” Building upon previous creative survey with artist Leo Fizmaurice, a second creative survey collaboration with artists Sans façon afforded deeper site investigation that would be best described in the words of the artists themselves: The arrows become indicators of presence in the city. The participatory nature of the work unveils a new layer of spaces as they are used. It highlights the seemingly mundane act of moving through the city by drawing attention to both collective and individual, and marks the time and space that become activated with movement.
The project explores the potentials of engaging with the complex and multiple cultural conditions of urban sites. Consequently, exploration focused on how the rigidity and singular nature of these impermeable thick edge spaces can be opened to diverse flows relating to multiple contexts. Through processes of design intervention, the project proposes a ‘polycontextual’ approach to introduce flows of wider contextual dimensions within an urban site – promoting architectural solutions that blur, fray and punctuate thick edges by developing them as threshold conditions between adjacencies. Castlegate in Sheffield as a destination is envisioned as a constantly shifting cultural landscape. Simultaneously functioning as a flood basin, the proposed landscape and structures are designed as catalysts for volatile cultural festivities. The proposed cable car station and the observatory tower enables the constant stream of visitors to arrive at the events and festivals on site despite the occurrences of flood. Improvisational and interactive architecture built of the scaffolds will adapt to varying programmes of each festival- introducing an architecture of constant activity within the landscape of Castlegate. In essence, Envisioning Castlegate proposes a multifunctional events facility and landscape that permanently supports local arts and culture festivals, and the structuration of a dynamic, relational and non-deterministic public space. The continuous process of construction, disassembly and reassembly serve to sustain and fuel the theatricality and speculative element of what the site could be in the future.
