| this new international competition seeks a team bursting with inspiration and ideas to bring life back to birnbeck island and pier in weston-super-mare. the competition is organised by the riba and urban splash working with north somerset council, birnbeck pier regeneration trust and the prince's regeneration trust. the remarkable site is in north weston-super-mare and was completed in 1866, and was designed by the great pier builder eugenius birch. over the years it has played host to thousands and thousands of holiday makers, paddlesteamers used to ferry people to and from wales with the last journey made in 1979 and even the beatles spent time at birnbeck back in the day. the royal national lifeboat institute [rnli] has a fully operational station on the island which has been there for 125 years. urban splash wants to create a fantastic development with public access, new attractions and facilities to draw more residents, workers and tourists to weston-super-mare. 'birnbeck is an outstanding site,' said james howard, associate director, urban splash [south west]. 'we're really hoping to attract the best architects from around the world to create the special new birnbeck, which it so thoroughly deserves.' the competition will be carried out in two stages with the 9 november 2007 as the deadline for submissions. the judges will then select a shortlist of 6 who will be invited for second stage interview. urban splash intends to invite local people to comment on the shortlist and their comments will be fed back to the judges. it is intended that a winner will be announced in early 2008 and the winner appointed to work with urban splash to develop the scheme. competition web site : http://www.birnbeck-island.co.uk/ email competition : [email protected] |
