Cotton Exchange, Bournemouth

Project Information

Dot were approached to redevelopment this site after numerous failed applications and solutions from other practices. Our approach was far more sympathetic to what had been previously suggested, keep the main building and convert – this was made possible by removing the central core to the building. This helped create an internal courtyard with which all the first-floor flats could share. The development was used as the central point to the regeneration of Boscombe, with the Police Station and community centre taking the commercial elements.
