Hobart & Heron successfully won the design & build project for Stena’s new ferry terminal in Belfast at Victoria Terminal 4 (VT4) in 2006. By the time the VT4 building was completed and opened in June 2008, we had been appointed directly by Stena to design and procure the new Loch Ryan Port buildings on a windswept exposed site just north of Cairnryan in Scotland. This £50m development project incorporated dredging, site reclaimation and harbour development works, to create the land onto which the new passenger terminal, and 5 other support buildings would be built. This passenger terminal was designed to enhance passenger comfort, and complete the second leg of the journey that started with the VT4 Belfast Terminal. Two new luxury fast ferries, which would reduce journey time and greatly enhance the travel experience for passengers, were also introduced on the route at the opening last year. The terminal building design has a low profile of 2 storeys, with a curved overhanging roof to provide both shelter from the elements when the rain is not coming horizontally, and soften the buildings appearance against the steep slopes of the Galloway hills which rise some 200m above the A77 road north on the sites eastern boundary. A high performance glazed curtain wall façade provides the main external wall element, and the visual link from inside the building to the rugged natural landscape of hillside and sea on this exposed site. A neutral grey external colour pallet for the building was chosen to enhance the corporate signage colours of Stena on the roof and canopies. Inside, the colours are a neutral ‘off white’, with occasional walls of red and blue, Stena’s corporate colours. Furniture was selected by Hobart & Heron to reflect modern vibrant departure lounges, café and offices, and arranged to provide views outside in all directions on both ground and first floor offices. The terminal building ground floor is designed to allow for the smooth flow of foot passengers and staff through the building. Beyond the ‘meeters and greeters’ waiting area is security, which is similar to Airport security as this is a main entry port into the UK. Foot passengers then proceed to the waiting lounge, which has catering and toilet facilities. Car and freight passengers must drive through a security building and then through a Ticketing building before parking in designated waiting rows before being allowed to drive onto the ferry. Car passengers can also enter the terminal building from the secure side for refreshments and toilet use. The first floor level of the Terminal building has Stena and security personnel offices, as well as conference rooms, meeting rooms, canteens, and stores. On the second floor are the boiler room and air handling units, with an open plant well.

As Architects and Lead Consultant of the buildings designteam, we coordinated design information from the otherconsultants for the delivery of all the buildings on the project.We liaised with the Civil Engineering project manager to reportand monitor progress of the building works. We assisted in theprocurement and selection of a main contractor, subcontractors, and building envelope contractors. We also had amain role in the management of both the centralized designinformation documentation system, and NEC3 contractmanagement. Stena also had specialist Swedish contractors,whom we assisted in getting their design informationapproved under Scottish Building Warrants.

The project was designated as one of the Scottish Parliamentstop ten infrastructure projects and as such was being fasttracked through the approval process. It also had to be seen

CASE STUDY ARCHITECT’S ACCOUNT

to achieve a higher level of sustainability beyond thoseindicated in Scottish Building Regulations. To achieve this thebuilding is heated and cooled by a highly efficient Air SourcedHeat Pump VRV Air Conditioning System. The system recoversheat from the areas in the building that require cooling andallows it to be used in areas that need heating, for examplethe system cooling the comms rooms provides heat to the overdoor air curtains at the main passenger entrances. The main AirHandling Unit that serves the passenger areas also utilizes aheat recovery wheel to reduce the energy used by the systemthat operate on a 24/7 basis.

The lighting scheme within the terminal building wasdeveloped in line with the Stena Corporate ID based on theirmain terminal in Gothenburg, Sweden. The operational area ofthe site is lit to port standards and required substantialmodelling and production of photo montages during theplanning process.

The project consisted of significant infrastructure works due toits location. This included a new dedicated transformerinstallation, a 1 mile stretch of new street lighting on the A77,a 1 mile water main installation and new sewage treatmentworks to serve the site and the local village of Cairnryan. Thebuildings were all completed in 15 months and have been wellreceived by Stena management, their staff and passengers.
