Before: After:

The pre-fab units imitate the rhythm and proportion of the barracks geometry.

The roofscape points to the key views and vistas to the south. Orientation of standard rooms and suites take advantage of views. The vernacular construction of the barracks is signifjcant. The proportions and rhythm are replicated in the new.

Integrity and Contextual Importance

The addition protects the barracks, preserving their historic value. The slate roof sits independent of the barracks as to distinguish new from old. The new addition brings economic value back to the site after a century of ruin. The development also brings footfall to the village of Llanberis. The intervention into the barracks respects the old while contrasting with new. The materials used are strictly slate and timber to harmonise with the context. Constant connection between inside and out. Contained spaces are defjned by distinct thresholds.

Socio-cultural and Contemporary value Authenticity and Architectural Value

Stage 1: Heritage Management

The intermediate walls which historically separated the sleeping and living will be

• removed. Towards the centre of the street, some of the back walls are broken in

to allow cruciform circulation. Please refer to page 15 of the design report. 1:500

To be removed

Stage 2: Topography Management

The surface will be excavated (300mm) to allow the door height of the barracks to increase to 2000mm. The excavated soil will be redistributed over the south of the site to level out the ground. The shallow rock face to the west of the site will be receded to create a line with the larger rock face to create a threshold: the

• entrance. The funnelling affect will draw visitors into the winter garden.

Stage 3: Safeguarding Authenticity

The new installations will be pre-fabricated cross laminated timber units. The units that sit within the barracks can be dropped into place via helicopter whereas the rest of the accommodation to the south and north of the barracks can assembled on site. Distinct separation between new and old.

Stage 4: Safeguarding Integrity

The roof over the barracks consists of beams following the pitch and the purlins which hold the slate shingles and the rest of the roof build up including insulation.

Stage 5: Environmental Response

A line of trees, 2m from the suites and in 2m intervals will be planted. Then the rest of the winter garden along with the rest of the trees to the north which loosely form a courtyard around the bar area.

Stage 6: Construction Strategy

The portal frame and the colonnade will both be made out of cross laminated timber and assembled on site after the pieces are brought to site via helicopter. The proportions of the colonnade are in relation to the portal frame (s.f.1/3). 1:500
