Luthier Haven, seeks to liven the Newark community with a dedicated musical hub, conceptually focused on themes of escapism. The site is the Town Wharf, beside the River Trent and opposite the Newark Castle. This building design is to respect the history and ecology of the Newark medieval town centre, while also incorporating modern and sustainable design to create an environment that will serve not just today, but the future as well. The target audience we hope to reach is the declining youthful population around Newark by providing an environment for the knowledge of older instrument craftsmen and musicians in and around Newark to be shared, adding an educational aspect to our scheme.
