The Turner Centre
Margate: 2001

This proposal for a landmark gallery to house works by JMW Turner, took its inspiration from the form of the cliffs, now gone, that had provided such a satisfying termination to the bay in Turner's time.

By day, it would be a dramatic glazed promenade with an ever-changing play of light reflected from the sea below, and by night a shimmering skin, a beacon across the bay.
