Year 2

Flo Skatepark

Located on a ‘wasteland’ in Nottingham, the design lacked urban presence and has fallen in to ruin over time, despite its historical importance as the Great Northern Railway Warehouse. 

​

As our introductory project into second year, we were granted the opportunity to repair & reconnect the abandoned warehouse: allowing for place-making. 

​

The proposal of my design transforms the current-overlooked, difficult to develop ruin into a centrepiece of a new community of users and visitors.

This project allowed for me to thoughtfully develop the regeneration of a built structure and propose the intervention of landscaping. To accommodate a space for a skatepark and facilitate an overall site strategy, the project was project down into two stages.
