Situated along Hull’s Eastern Riverfront, this scheme proposes a hotel and auction house which pays homage to the dichotomies of the city’s industrial past and artistic present as well as the site’s own historical and current realities to form a folly in the urban landscape.

Rooftop Garden Threshold_ Framing Shotwell Tower between Hotel and Auction House.
Curtain Walls_ Inspired by the Silo that stood after the bombing of the original flour Mill act to increase light and manage thermal comfort.
The scheme is designed around the curation of viewpoints and connections, utilizing framing and light manipulation to produce timeless views that highlight Hull’s unique duality whilst also creating self-contained atria that suspend time completely, allowing the user to get lost within the time of the architecture.
