The brief for this project was to redevelop a municipal site with existing small holiday chalets, into a medium-sized complex with multiple requirements and functions, including; dwellings, overnight accommodation, community facilities with spaces that are both private and public. The project should, re-imagine and improve the site, considering environmental and social sustainability.
This project consists of multiple aspects designed wholly for the disabled (not adapted for use by) along the Felixstowe seafront, including disabled accommodation, rehabilitation facilities with a public cafe and a garden to tie the scheme into the existing public seafront gardens.
The Stager Sands project was designed from the start to consider the challenges faced by those with physical disabilities. Therefore, technically designed elements such as gradual slopes have been implemented. The project follows UK building regulations for disabled accessibility with automated doors and lifts being present; whilst also incorporating innovative accessibility elements.
"Stager Sands" is a model of inclusive architectural practice, offering a fully accessible residential and therapeutic complex along the Felixstowe seafront. The project is not just adapted for the disabled but designed explicitly for them from the outset, incorporating gradual slopes, tactile materials, and sensory gardens. The integration of rehabilitation spaces, a public café, and green connections to existing seafront infrastructure reflects a holistic and community-minded approach. The architectural language is calm, coherent, and responsive to both human scale and context. With only minor suggestions for deepening material richness, this is a well-executed and socially commendable project.
