The Crab Quay development demonstrates how a pioneering mindset and brilliant design can find unique potential in the most unexpected places.

Collaborating with a local West Country investor, we were asked to propose a town-centre location for commercial re-development. Going beyond our initial brief, our research found exceptional potential in the town’s industrial fishing quay. 

Working closely with local stakeholders, we designed a strategy to transform the underused industrial quay into a unique mixed-use business opportunity. The waterside development will expand the fishing port, adding improved logistics and processing facilities, a seafood outlet and restaurant and a flexible event space.
