Intent

Designed as TAS submission for the new Central Bank of The Bahamas Design Competition.

The design strives to project a new and bold modern architectural statement looking towards the future while still respecting the history of an institution entrusted with the monetary reserves and fiscal management of the country finances.

This option sites the building in the Royal Victoria Gardens, which has fallen into disrepair and will be restored to its former status as a place of important historical interest.

The main building, which comprises 150,000 sq. ft. is oriented towards the magnificent harbor and ocean views and overlooks the gardens and downtown city center.

With its many inventive structural and environmental ideas, the building becomes a live learning tool. Fitted with state of the art operating systems it is targeted to achieve a LEED Platinum certification.
