In 2016 we were part of 2 final teams comprising of engineers and artists commissioned to design a £2.5m promontory for the Vaux site in Sunderland. We were chosen along with Catherine Bertola out of a shortlist of 25 designers and artists by global firm Cundall, to work with them on developing an ambitious project to celebrate the end of an imaginary keel line starting 390m (the length of the Naess Crusader, the last and longest ship to be built on the site) away at a propeller sculpture in Keel Square and ending 30m off a cliff edge overlooking the Wear. Our proposal was for a promenade aand outdoor space on the top level with a habitable gallery and commercial space over 4 floors. Sadly our concept was not selected to be taken forward but we look forward to further proposals. A description of the design process taken from our submission follows:

Shame they missed out, it looks really good.
