Tideswell Co-op
C+A Design is proud to have been appointed by Ackroyd and Abbott Limited to provide architectural and visualisation services for the design and construction of a new Co-op convenience store in Tideswell, a picturesque civil parish in the heart of the Peak District National Park. The project involved the construction of a new building to house the Co-op, which will relocate from its current undersized premises. The development has been unanimously approved by the Peak District National Park Planning Authority and is expected to provide a valuable service to the local community while boosting the local economy.
One of the main challenges in designing the new building was to balance modern convenience withthe traditional character of the area. C+A Design took great care to select materials that would blend in with the local architecture while still providing a functional and modern space for the Co-op. The new building was designed to reflect the traditional architecture of the area, with walls made froms andstone with sandstone quoins, blending seamlessly with the surrounding buildings. The roof, on the other hand, was designed with a more modern touch, using dark grey standing seam cladding to give a sleek, contemporary look.
The site layout was carefully planned to minimise the visual impact of the new building while still providing a modern, functional space that meets the needs of the local community. The building was used to screen the associated car park, creating a more seamless transition between the new building and the existing surroundings. The interior of the building was designed to make efficient use of space while still providing a comfortable shopping environment. Large windows were incorporated to let in plenty of natural light, creating a bright and airy space that is inviting to customers.
The development is expected to create new jobs in the area, providing employment opportunities for local people and helping to boost the local economy. The new convenience store is expected to be a popular destination for both locals and visitors, providing a valuable service to the community while contributing to the vibrancy of Tideswell.
Overall, the design and construction of the new Co-op convenience store in Tideswell is a great example of how modern convenience can be blended with traditional architecture to create a functional and visually appealing space. By carefully selecting materials and designing a layout that is sympathetic to the surrounding area,C+A Design have created a building that will be a valuable addition to the local community for years to come.
