Detailed masterplan considerations. Physical routes establish a direct connection between the town and the sea and pass through a transitional semi-natural layer, structures are plugged into these routes, many containing functions that are at present primarily contained within the town such as artists studios, cafes, hotels and conference facilities.
This will further developed by:
Developing the nature of the transitional space and how it should be articulated.
Establishing a hierarchy of how far the piers should extend into the landscape from the town, for example some streets in the town are more significant than others and so the routes radiating from these could extend further than the more minor roads.
Define the materiality of the structural elements; namely the routes, piers and buildings. Synthetic, man-made materials could be used to contrast with the natural setting, natural materials alternatively would compliment the natural setting whilst a mixture of both would both compliment and contrast with the mixture of urban and natural areas within the site.
