Live Make was an open design competition for an Industrial Arts center, aimed at regenerating a run-down quarter of Cincinnati, Ohio. The project set out to repurpose an existing single storey industrial unit, for artisans' work shops and living spaces, thereby retaining something of the rich heritage of the areas Industrial past, while fostering a spirit of innovation, in the creation of new products and services.

This was Phil's final year Thesis project, represented with the benefit of CAD. This industrial building was based around the planned construction of an engine plant in Deeside Industrial park East. It developed a unique way of integrating roof lighting, structure and services, that permitted continuous catwalk access along the structural grid, thereby permitting easy access to service runs during production line changes. The structure aims to reduce the high cost of production line changes, while offering a unique external aesthetic and natural north light.to all areas of the production facility.
