The Project
This project was to convert portable cabins for use as a restroom and changing room by the GB Olympic and Paralympic Rowing Teams during the Olympics in 2012. Our brief was to make the Portable Cabin blend in with the surrounding buildings and countryside.
This was achieved by over-cladding the cabin with Cedar helping it to blend in with its surroundings. We had to put in foundations for the Cabin to sit on, then we bolted Galvanised channel to the existing Building and screwed the Cedar to the channel leaving an air gap between the Cabin and the Cedar cladding, the ramp and the stairs had to be Built to DDA standards for wheelchair access.
