Posistion Within the Site


The size of the site posed the question of where to site the building. Depending upon its position within the park the building took on differing relationships with the local and wider community. Siting the building to the front of the park on Chapeltown Road increased its relationship with the wider urban context whilst still retaining ties with the immediate community.
This advanced position also allows the scheme to make maximum use of the remaining parkland. It offers the potential to connect the building and its uses to the landscape and provide further facilities for the community.
