Part of the regeneration of Hull, The Deep is set to become an internationally recognised landmark and project the pioneering heart of the City.

With a new pedestrian/cycle bridge over the River Hull, The Deep marks a new era in the regeneration of this great city and its river corridor.

The building exploits the landscape on which it is built and was inspired by natural geological land formations. Gleaming glass and aluminium thrust into the dramatic landscape on the confluence of the two rivers marking the historic entry to Kingston Upon Hull with a brand new future!

"I genuinely consider that this project has the potential to be regarded as one of the most characterful and unique new public buildings in Britain"

Sir Terry Farrell
