industrial buildings need not just be sheds! Here we have given a new interpetaion to the use of traditional industrail materails achieving a building with strength and character. Following on from earlier projects for Sunseeker this building of 35,000 sq ft was for new production lines of their new range of 95 ft motor yachts. The dimensions and clearances within the boatbuilding shops were absolutely critical to the production process and the size of the boats themselves. The building was detailed and erected in six months to meet the production schedule.
