I studied the Crépissage of Djenne in Mali, where locals annually restore a historic mosque's adobe walls. It signifies appreciation of valuable buildings. To support Hastings' festival scene, I designed an administrative centre. It will house a council of organisers, offer services including permits, marketing and logistics, and will include a performance space. The centre symbolises the gradual disintegration of materials, promoting restoration and sustainability. Hastings aims to streamline festival planning, strengthen the sector, and create a vibrant cultural environment.
