Wandsworth Common
Playground
A proposal for a natural playscape for Wandsworth Council. Lady Allen Adventure Playground sits alongside the site. We wanted to take inspiration form some of her theories in play design - in particular her attitude to risk.
We wanted at the centre of the deign to be the highest possible (4m) free climb without barriers. This could be achieved with a web system of ropes that create a highly challenging risky climb but with an obstructed safe fall.

Bread Oven
2019
A community bread oven designed and constructed as part of a long-term live project at Central Saint Martins, led by Takeshi Hayatsu.
The structure is located outside the Ruskin Museum in Coniston, in the Lake District. The project fosters collective making and place-making by bringing together local communities, craftspeople, historians, and students. It aims to revive small-scale, on-site manufacturing and promote local production.
The structure forms a node along a pedestrian route, transforming the external areas of the Museum and Institute into active social spaces.
