‘The Making of…’ is an opportunity to reflect on Foster + Partners’ completed projects and the process of making them.
Last month marked 10 years of the Yacht Club de Monaco, the symbolic centrepiece of Monaco’s harbour front. The nautical building features a clubroom and ballroom, a number of restaurants and a series of ‘cabins’ for visiting guests. The upper floors accommodate a range of event spaces, while the lower floors include a rowing club and sailing school, with sliding doors that encourage activities to spread out onto the quayside.
Patrick Campbell, Senior Partner, Annamaria Anderloni, Partner, and Ivan Kaye, Associate Partner, describe the process of designing and realising the project on a complex waterside site.
