We are group 12 and we are rejuvenating the Talkshop in the Trafford Centre, Sale. Since covid, the number of young people visiting the TalkShop has dwindled, and the current proprietors think of the space as out of date. Our mission is to upgrade the main reception area according to the vision of those who regularly access it in hopes of enhancing their experience. An exciting new rebrand would also help in attracting new foot traffic and create some excitement around the space, hopefully increasing awareness and encouraging more people to take advantage of the services.

Hi, Im Sara Kaissi and I am a BA1 student at MSA.

One of the main reasons that I got into architecture was to be able to create environments that are specifically designed to improve the everyday lives of their occupants, through function, ergonomics, and aesthetics. So being able to directly work with the young people that we will be designing for is a very exciting opportunity.
