The city of Bristol has a long standing Naval and Merchant history, so what could be better than a dramatic sail feature to welcome visitors into the citys main shopping district?
Architen Landrell was approached by Bristol City Council to design, manufacture and install a entrance feature which could be printed or branded to reflect the citys identity. The PVC coated polyester fabric sail is fixed to a large steel frame and both had to be carefully engineered to ensure they were resistant to wind and snow loading, (particularly due to the shape of the sail which is traditionally designed to catch the wind!) The sail stood at the junction of Union Street with the Haymarket and the Horsefair, where thousands of shoppers a day passed it and used it as a meeting spot and point of reference. Bristol City Council removed it in 2026 as part of works to remodel the junction.
