872201 - Trent Quay
Dan Shanahan - Emmett McNamara
Trent Quay uses existing buildings on the site, rejuvenating the area with a brewery and riverside bar and restaurant, as well as a fresh food market for local produce. All new buildings on the site are constructed using the Brettstapel solid timber construction system, which uses no glue or nails. Material is fabricated from softwood timber posts connected with hardwood dowels, using timber which would otherwise be unsuitable for construction to form load-bearing floors, walls and roof panels.

Denny Chan Kai Lok - Thomas Bennett
A mixed-use live / work scheme combining family housing with office space and community facilities, the project proposes that existing warehouses can be converted into usable workshops and gallery spaces, providing a catalyst for more comprehensive regeneration of the site. Plans include a 'green corridor', connecting the site to existing transport routes and proposals include a mix of waterside living, garden terraces and commercial use of current buildings.
