Weymouth Seafront  
Sailing at Weymouth

30 March - 9 May 2010

Weymouth in Dorset is the sailing venue for the 2012 Olympic Games, and is subject to major waterfront regeneration.

In early March the Architecture Centre will lead a Design Challenge Workshop with local students to consider coastal town regeneration. 30 students from Budmouth Technology College will undertake a site visit, and will then respond to a topical design brief, related to the development of the Weymouth waterfront. Their work will form this exhibition at the Architecture Centre.

This project is part of O.space - a nationwide CABE programme building on the excitement around the Olympics to inspire people about architecture and the built environment.

Students from Budmouth Technology College investigate the public realm 
Students discuss their ideas for improving Weymouth Seafront
