Amazing to see everyone’s work come together in @actionherolive From Ashes installation at M Shed — last day today!!
Yesterday was Day 1 and the buildings emerged. Brushing away the ash was so meditative, and it sparked some really lovely conversations about making models, Bristol, and life in general. It’s been such a fun project for us at @_architecture00 designing the building nets — and amazing to see the unique versions created by students from UWE. Even met some super makers who built up to 50 buildings each!
The whole installation has been beautifully brought together by Jim, Gemma and Emily, creating a unique experience where you lose track of time and instead meditate on our city and its possible futures.
71/72 KINSGWAY
12000sqm of new-build workspace, meeting/conferencing spaces, and public uses.
71|72 is one of ten projects under the Swansea Bay City Deal, a partnership between the Welsh Government and Swansea Council to bring new prosperity to the city and county. The development was commissioned to provide high-quality, tech-focused workspace that would attract employment back to the city centre and stimulate footfall and vitality amid declining retail and leisure activity.
The design demonstrates a strong commitment to delivering value for money while achieving high-quality, sustainable, and socially beneficial outcomes. The building’s exceptionally efficient layouts, circa 85% net-to-gross for office floors and 75% for other areas, maximise useable space, which has enabled rent affordability for tenants and reallocation of budget to provide generous public amenities, terraces, and community-focused facilities.
