Cowper Griffith is developing designs for a café, retail and arts complex designed to offer local produce, locally sourced dining and to support a thriving local arts scene in this coastal, village location.

Ultimately, the site – which includes a former ‘pick your own’ facility – will generate its own crops both for retail and on-site dining, whilst a converted and refurbished café will provide an arts studio space for a variety of local groups.

The design references existing, local agricultural structures which are characterised by their modest scale, ad hoc layout and strictly limited palette of black timber and corrugated metal sheet. We expect to be on site later in 2017.
