We have been inextricably drawn to the ever shifting boundary conditions between the sea, beach and promenade. The saline quality of this marine landscape manifesting in an extreme and varying manner has been explored through this submission.

A scheme therefore conceived as an assemblage of everyday remnants and objects found on the beach; driftwood, boats and fossils. The hull like shelters and kiosk are static to a degree, rooted where the sea has deposited them. The benches and seats, like driftwood are dynamic, lifted and their position altered and shifted as if floating on the ebb and flow of the tidal drift.

The project is set aside from the decorative aesthetic of Bexhill's heritage, and sits in subtle contrast, referencing nature and linking the promenade to the sea, as the benches spill from shelter to beach.
