2023 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Cotters Building
This project celebrates memory, heritage and pride. The architect and client have given a heritage façade a new lease on life, while providing design clues to future neighbouring buildings. The decision to re-create the ground floor central arcade evokes the memory of the former building on the site, adding depth to the visual delight of the retained façade. The design is rich with texture and variety of spaces. It successfully engages with both the main street and lane behind, creating joyful opportunities for vibrant interactions in the near and distant future.
