Modern
Across the Main Town, Rural Edges and Car Parks, the proposal is for a base of corten steel and timber for the majority of the hard landscaping and wayfinding. This reflects existing signage and creates a warm, coherent, modern design which sits beautifully alongside the more informal landscape.
Heritage
Through the Old Town, there is existing signage, lighting and other hard landscape details in cast iron. By adding to this and maintaining the style, it maintains the association with the Old Town and merges the new with the old.
