The De La Warr Pavilion is one of the most famous modern buildings in Britain.

It is important for the community to feel a sense that they possess their own public buildings. We entered into a collaborative process with the local people, co-designing with local school children from 6 schools. The design was developed through a series of workshops with the pupils. The success of the collaboration was marked by the number of parents and adults who became involved.

The canopy is fibreglass coated stressed ply skin structure, which sits on the steel base structure. It moves about on the terrace to accommodate different performances. The shape of the canopy was based on computer analysis of sound projection.
