The Hilton Hotel (Squire & Partners) found near the Albert Dock hints again at the sheer redevelopment that has, and is still occurring within the city from 2007 onwards - with the title of 'European Capital of Culture' also being given the Liverpool in 2008, provoking further development.

A visit was made to the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral, to provide the students with an example of intervention that encapsulates the play of light through glazing, completely dictating the atmosphere found within the Cathedral. A strong juxtaposition from the brutalist exterior semantic.

Day One - 'The Initial Visit'.

We arrived in Liverpool with the ideal weather for conducting analysis. After a short 10 minute walk from Lime Street Station we arrived to a quiet, secluded site and began sketching and photographing the area. The students were left to their own devices, exploring the nearby vicinity to gain an understanding of the local context.
