The new hall encourages flexibility in use, sustainability and seamless integration with its environment. Wishing to have a space to provide a totally new, intimate and ever-changing encounter with the building, the resultant design is a place that provides an interplay between landscape, architecture and people. Conceived perhaps most notably as a place to meet, that feels inviting to all, promotes inclusivity and provides flexibility in use. The new building will act as a symbol or marker for the local community, today and for decades to come.

At the same time, certain transparency is given to the rear of the property to create uncertainty between what is interior and exterior space.

“Folkestone attracted me mostly through the dramatic aspect of living and working by the sea – the dramatic cliffs, the striking coast. The area also offers a variety of typologies to work with; rural, urban and coastal.”

“And, of course, this is a much more meditative space to clear the mind. We still work heavily with London through the practice, just in a more peaceful setting.”
