Infrastructure study. The Wirral.

Wirral Recycling Facility — infrastructure study

A coastal treatment works that can be read and visited. The tanks are the plan; the fence is not.

Wirral recycling facility — aerial view of circular tanks on the coastal site
Aerial: circular tanks on the shore. Process as form.

Infrastructure is usually hidden. Here the circular tanks are allowed to be the architecture. A visitor building sits on the shore so the works have a public face without disguising the process.

Wirral recycling facility — site plan labelled The Wirral, with circular process tanks and visitor building
Site plan — The Wirral, the tanks, a visitor building on the water.
Wirral recycling facility — process diagram of the wastewater recycling cycle
The cycle drawn. Wastewater as a sequence you can follow.

Plan and cycle are the same drawing. That is the skill we are practising: make a plant legible. An infrastructure study, not a commissioned works.
