Aoelus, Margate pier

'On Margate sands, I can connect nothing with nothing ... my people humble people expect, NOTHING'.

- TS Eliot, 1921.

Surrounded by water since its construction in 1856, the harbour has long served a purpose as a means of leisure and trade in Margate.

Having always been a Pier ' for People', the new proposal aims to create a space to admire the spectacularly link between the land, the sea and the sky. Basing my design on the theory of Escapism I explore the psychogeography and narrative of the spaces. 

The new scheme include three distinctive typologies in order to reclaim the sea :

The Street : A harbour / Fish market

The Bay : A water garden green promenade / An Industry of harvesting seaweed

The Sea : A water chamber / Sea organ

Much like the fisherman exploited the sea to its full potential, the pavilions aims to regenerate the history of imagery, sound and economy of the Harbour.

    MA Interior Design, 2016

  • I have been working in Paris, London and Mexico for the past few years and I would say that being faced with different cultures is the most inspiring asset a designer can experience and relate into his work.

    The practice of Interior Design is the ‘magic' behind a facade, arousing emotions in humans, it shapes their experiences and leaves them memories. When ingeniously, integrity, authenticity and a bit of mystery operates together, I believe Art enters in. I consider that interiors are natural projections of our soul.
