PROJECT

Lifeguard Station

Project Description

CLIENT: West Wittering Estate Plc

PROJECT: Lifeguard Station

 

SMD were proud to work alongside WWE on another important community project, this time to provide a vital state-of-the-art Lifeguard Station along West Wittering beach.

Growing visitor numbers have created a need for enhanced lifeguarding services and modernised public amenities. The building provides new and improved facilities to further increase safety and serve the local community and visitors to the area.

The building uses sustainable design and focuses on biodiversity and ecology with a green roof, PV panels, use of natural materials and a large gabion wall to protect from South Westerly prevailing winds.
