GRAS collaborated with Wavegarden Scotland to develop a concept design for the retail and surf school facilities at the artificial wave pool in Ratho Quarry. The proposal features a cluster of timber-clad blocks arranged beneath an oversailing roof. This composition creates a series of interconnected internal and external spaces designed for dining and socialising. A meandering route flows from the country park to the water’s edge, weaving through the building and evoking the natural movement of sand dunes within the landscape.
