Redesign Help Community Trust With ‘Our Space’
Redesign have been working with a Recreation Ground Trust in West Cornwall to look at providing improved facilities for the park. We came up with the ‘Our Space’ Concept.
In discussion with the trust, Redesign agreed to prepare some initial ideas for the recreation ground to provide a multi-function all weather space for all ages, that would not require staffing. The two primary needs of the recreation ground were expressed as a safe shelter space for young people and a stage space for use by groups including schools for a variety of purposes.
Given these parameters Redesign set about creating a design. We wanted to create a flexible space, for multi-generational use, which would be fun, safe, low maintenance and low impact on the park. Our solution is to employ two recycled shipping containers to create the internal space and form the main structure, with a lightweight tent style roof covering the stage area between them and the entrance to the two Our Space shelters.
The trust are now exploring funding options to see these ideas become a reality.
