Inhabiting The Edge

My proposal is for a series of buildings whose architectural form is moulded and shaped by the pedestrian paths and sightlines on the site. The building's shape and the urban path have a positive/negative relationship, with the building being the positive space and the path being the 'space between' the buildings.  The image of the city as a river, and the buildings as logs floating in this river has guided this design. The buildings respond directly to the site and encourage visitors to explore the spaces between and next to the buildings as well as the new Thames Walk and beach paths
