Urban Stage, Wapping Wharf, Bristol

Artist(s): KBHT

A new transitional space set between private courtyards and the public street has been created by KBHT for this residential development in Bristol.

A laser cut back lit corten steel soffit, creates an identity for this new space that sits at the intersection of pedestrian flow forming an imagined theatre space that uses raking steps as seats and the street as a stage.

A composition of concrete column and intricate Victorian scroll pattern forms a simple concept that provides an elegant statement of intent.  Local fabricators Resurgem worked closely with Ginkgo and the design team to fabricate and install the artwork.
