EMPOWERING ELLESMERE

Aim: To lay emphasis on the value of the site by re-establishing the connection it has with its users and with its town (Ellesmere Town).

Approach: The project explores the process of slow architecture with a focus on landscape and circular economy.

Strategy: Other design factors to consider include accessibility to all, involving local businesses, being sustainable and preserving the heritage and the ecology while still making them accessible.

Such a tranquil hidden town worth to be explored and empowering for the betterment of the community, mother nature and the future.
