The Middlehaven masterplan in Middlesbrough centres around the historic town hall building. This striking building forms the centrepiece of the proposed development, and by utilising a strong geometric form, the landscape echoes and fragments this form throughout the wider development. Pockets of nature nestle onto these fragmented spaces, creating opportunities in what are often leftover spaces. Public spaces and shared access take precedence to create a balanced heart of a new community, combining the historic features, dynamic geometric landscapes, and spaces for nature.
