Hewitt Studios have been asked to remodel and refurbish the existing Range store in Llansamlet, Swansea. The current store suffers from a severly deteriorated building fabric, resulting in a poor internal environment with significant heat loss and water ingress. Our proposals re-roof the building and re-clad it with a series of variegated metal panels, in a reference to Swansea’s one time reputation as ‘Copperopolis’. The result will be a more sustainable, secure and vibrant retail facility – one which is firmly rooted in its locality.
