Project/event title: A temporary Theatre for the Austin Estate

Site, date: Hayes Austin Estate, 2014

Client: Hayes Town Partnership and Hillingdon Council

Audience: Residents of the Austin Estate

Student/organisation, discipline: BA Architecture

Description: The Austin Estate has talented residents who enjoy performing. The proposal for a temporary theatre made of recycled materials and built with the help of the local community creates an opportunity for the residents to show each other their skills and perform to a wider audience, also attracting residents of Hayes into the currently gated Estate, and enlivening the underused community spaces.
