‘LOOP’

Final year project
The Site
The site selected was 2-3 Bristo Place, an old adventist church located in Edinburgh’s Old Town. When selecting a site, it was important to chose a building centrally located, with sufficient transport links, which the late 19th century church has. The building has significant community value so it was important to propose a meaningful change of use.
The Concept
The concept behind LOOP, is keeping its users ‘in the loop’. A clear visible spatial layout aids visitors, along with a strategic colouring, with hope one feels confident to explore and always find their way back. With specific attention to materiality choices, LOOP aims to make life that little bit easier.
