Stage — Concept

As a three-tiered project, the design looks to develop a space to engage the local community with art, entertainment and the surrounding environment. The first stage is to install an artwork that frames the sweeping skyline views and would act to generate tourist interest in the area as a photo opportunity. Additionally, the installation would also function as cinema screen for night time events.

Extending the decking from the beach promenade to the rooftop space is the second phase in creating a fluent transition between the beachfront and the entertainment area. The third stage would see the palm trees of the esplanade as an inspiration for pavilion-style canopies, creating a visually dynamic facade for the Sea Baths.
