This project is about the renewal and renovation of the Broadmarsh area, focusing on the mixed-use design of the building and the non-motorized multi-traffic pavement design. The design concept "Doorway to Nottingham" is a metaphor for a set of traffic transition points that combine concentration and guidance.

Moreover, a detailed design was made for the unused land underneath the elevated tramway where near the Nottingham Contemporary.
