— Robert Morris-Eyton, Chair, Millom Town Board“We were incredibly impressed with the very high standard of submissions for this competition. The jury panel assessed the highly talented teams, all of whom had the ability and skills to take this project forward and do an excellent job. The quality of thinking and depth of expertise in all the teams was clear. This was a very close competition but ultimately the panel was unanimous in selecting Layer & Gagarin Studio as the winner. We now look forward to working with the team as they develop outline proposals specific to the Iron Line project.”
