INSIGHT PROJECT
THE SITE FOR THIS PROJECT IS ADJACENT TO MARKET SQUARE. NOTTINGHAM IN AN EXISTING BUILDING CURRENTLY TRADING AS A FAST FOOD RESTAURANT.
The site for this project is adjacent to Market Square. Nottingham in an existing building currently trading as a fast food restaurant. The brief was to give the building a new identity by creating a place for people to go and relax. The idea was to create a space people could go to breathe and contemplate for a moment whilst escaping the hustle and bustle of the outside world. The design was based around a large open air void at the centre of the building filled with live silver birch trees and bridges running across the ground and first floor level, and the second floor designed as a ‘napping”quiet” zone right at the top of the filled with individual spaces inspired by tree houses.
