Kingston Gateway

Two hundred students from Kingston University and from Kingston College entered a competition to redesign the College Roundabout, so that the roundabout created a gateway into Kingston. The competition was part of K+20 scheme, a redevelopment project for Kingston-Upon-Thames throughout the next 20 years.
My idea was to create a transparent sculpture in the centre of the roundabout that displayed continually changing images of the community and Kingston. My sculpture was meant to be a landmark that drew people to the area and told them that they had arrived in Kingston.
I was one of twenty students from Kingston University to have their design put through to the 2nd stage, a public exhibition in Market Hall, Kingston, where I displayed my model to the public and a panel of judges.
