Angel Yard
Angel Yard provides a series of affordable spaces for community and young enterprises, created through the retrofit and extension of disused garages in Angel Edmonton. The project is initially designed considering a meanwhile-use period of five years, but includes components that can be relocated after this for a more permanent use elsewhere.
New structural works were designed in timber, including new vaulted roof structure to the garages and external free-standing canopy structures. The use of lightweight and low-cost materials for new structures and the retention of existing garage walls was key to ensuring the financial viability of the scheme.
