The RAF Museum Cosford required their vast reserve collection to be consolidated into one new building and required the reserve collection to not only be stored but to give the opportunity for the visiting public to tour the building and enjoy and be educated by the collection.
My concept for this project was to capture the movement of aerobatic displays or smoke trails of fighting aircraft (as depicted in "The Battle of Britain - Paul Nash"), whilst creating a smart building complying with NetZero targets.
