CONCLUSION
Hight street of Tyldesley faded because of the low infrastructures and unactive economy, which no longer can satisfy residents' social need.
Through analysing the demands of citizen, combined the theory of feminism and different angles, I try to build a relationship between the high street and people's daily life, use architect language to make respond to their needs. Besides the design of exterior performance, I also think about the inside activities, considering the influence from the aspects of economy and ecology.

The proposal reuses the vacant space on the high street to create social spaces for residents. It was divided into two parts, one for the outside and new building, the other focus on an existing building and inside activities. It shows one of the most important topics of high street regeneration: combining new and old.

The exterior wall use the CLT structure with recycled bricks. Based on the understanding and research of local architecture material, the attempt has brought interesting effects.

CLT ( Cross-Laminated Timber ) is an engineered timber product with good structural properties and low environmental impact (where sustainably sourced timber is used). It can provide dry, fast onsite construction, with good potential for airtightness and a robust wall and floor structure suitable for most finishes internally and externally. It requires only limited new site skills, and its low weight means that a high degree of offsite manufacture is possible. Access permitting, relatively large premanufactured panels can be transported to site for fast, factory-quality construction. Currently, CLT is manufactured abroad with an established supply into the UK market, although this brings higher environmental impact from typicall increased transportation distances and some cost uncertainty with varying foreign exchange rates.
I try to use CLT structure combined with recycled bricks near the site, wich shows ineretsting effect.
Material Research
As for the roof glazing and interior light issues, I use a flexible structure. Daytime is quite long in summer, the roof material can be replaced by other transparent materials. One of the materials can be polycarbonate, which is much lighter than glass, also quite durable. And panels can be replaced in winter, as the daytime is shorter. It can be replaced by thick materials to keep indoors' temperature.
