Mass Trespass 92nd Anniversary Posters

LASTING IMPRESSION

Dan Nduka

The objective of this project is to design a visitor’s centre to commemorate the 1932 Kinder Scout Mass Trespass as a way of using architecture to serve the local community. My intervention focuses on the concept of “the path” and how it has not only defined the Right to Roam within The Peak District but also how it acts as the medium through which the members of it’s community forge interpersonal connections.

The design blends indoor and outdoor spaces with the ground floor being an outdoor exhibition space that follows the slope of the site.

The visitor centre would be largely cronstructed from cross-laminated timber since it is lightweight and would therefore would require less interference with the site during construction. Additionally, as the building ages, the greying of the timber and growth of algae on the building will help it blend in to the surrounding vegetation.
