BATH ART DEPOT

The Bath Art Depot is an ambitious re-imagining of Weston Island in Bath. The site currently hosts a bus depot (see below), but this is being vacated in the next few years.
A collective of artists, educators, and architects have stepped in
to transform the the soon-to-be disused hangars into a vibrant art centre including a gallery, events spaces, studios, fabrication labs, and a new home for the Bath Spa University arts library.
The design hinges around the reuse of the existing buildings, with low-carbon timber insertions to transform the spaces.
While at Feilden Fowles, I worked largely independently on this project, meeting with the clients and local councillors to produce a ‘vision document’ for the council and funders.
The project received a favourable response from the council and will be moving forward in the next few years.
