Preston Bus Station

If It Ain’t Broke…

Brutalist buildings often divide opinion but we believe most people would agree that Preston Bus Station is a remarkable and iconic feature.  We love it-  and that’s one of the reasons we’ve decided there should be the most delicate of interfaces- so delicate there isn’t one.  We won’t lay a finger on the listed station, but rather form a ‘street’ between it and the new structure.  As well as creating a necessary separation to the iconic station, there will be no clumsy impediments to public movement.  The new building will maintain and maximise views of the existing station and by using innovative level differences, we will break down barriers and create an integrated community facility set within a vital public area.
