Some of the results of the workshops may well feed into a bigger vision for rejuvenating an Arts and Crafts initiative by the NDA.
The results of the workshops also provide inspiration and design solutions for more permanent interventions in the town. The following images are mock-ups for the planned 'Planetary Highway' leading into town along the main road.
As well as other design elements already under construction for the facade of the 'Brain Centre'. Below is an example of the burglar bars of the new centre.
