Challenge

To increase access to and dwell time within a previously unused and uninviting public realm.

Approach

Taking design inspiration from ships masts at the harbour, bespoke tapered timber solution with three integrated lighting solutions provide both beautiful form and function. Excelling in uniformity and efficiency as well as aesthetic impact.

Result

A proposed improvement to the economy after the hours of darkness and an increased sense of place in addition to robust, cost-effective and maintenance free timber columns, even in the harsh marine environment.
