A Home For Harriet
The Harriet is Fleetwood’s dearest possession. Holding the title of the last surviving fishing boat, the people of Fleetwood wish to hold the Harriet in a space where she is represented and set free from the small, wooden shed she currently sits in.
The museum I have designed has been built around the Harriet, allowing space for her care and work to take place, and for visitors to view her openly, unlike before.

Concept Sketches
This concept sketch shows how I will place the Harriet in order to make the working process easier for workers.
This concept sketch shows how making the building too tall, could overshadow the houses beside.
This concept sketch shows how I will display the Harriet, to keep it protected as well as visible for visitors.
This concept sketch shows placing the Harriet in a protected spaceaway from sunlight which will retain its current materials, including a
skylight which diffuses the sunlight as opposed to light from windows.
Development
The connection between the existing shed and proposed site.
I shaped the building to provide space for a balcony and cantilever.
The connection between spaces and Fleetwood Museum.
Process of coming up with building ideas, from the shape to interior spaces.
My final idea consisted of splitting the building into three parts, to separate the spaces.
