The general principle of the brief for SPACE & PLACE is to remodel the existing buildings to bring them up to a modern standard in terms of building services, fabric and function. The existing building services and fabric are approaching the end of their serviceable life and the sports and leisure facilities need to be updated to reflect current standards and expectations. The brief proposes a scheme to re-establish the position of the centre as a national attraction and a ‘flagship’ leisure project for the next 20 years.
The key accommodational requirements of the outline brief are:
