“Interpolate aimed to balance Caerlavrock Castle's extensive history while also providing space in which Scotland's construction industry could grow towards the future. Guided by the existing walls and central voids of the castle, a plan to insert self-contained 'plugs' into the structure was created. By standing below, within and on top of these inserts, they became tools for further exploration of the castle. Using preexisting beam sockets, the plugs could recreate the previously intact guard house floors, ensuring that this design could utilise the castle as a tool to be learned from for years to come.”
