Exhibition: 31 August - 7 October,
2007
The neighbourhoods of Cotham, Kingsdown, Montpelier and St. Pauls,
are split by the Stokes Croft road into north Bristol. Architecture
students from the University of Western England studied this hostile
separation and designed ways in which the re-use of existing derelict
buildings along Stokes Croft - Westmoreland House and the adjoining
Carriage Works - could create new places for work, trade and performance
that these neighbourhoods might share.
The projects exhibited contend that new offices for the ethical
bank Triodos could be central to this regeneration. A new workplace
in Stokes Croft would augment existing patterns of use - thus
enriching an area of north Bristol that the students have already
found to be full of possibilities.
