Feb 4th Meeting

A selection of work from our meeting on 4th February where we contemplated various approaches to the project. Sustainability and environmentally friendly concepts were included in the design. We paid particular attention to the facilities provided by the school and to what new facilities are required.
The boys presented their ideas to the rest of the team. We were very impressed by their ideas and presentation skills.
Well done!

A new space for lunch???

Considering Elevations

The red area represents our infill project. When considering the elevations we will think of the materials carefully, the composition of the façade, where the windows and doors are placed. We will also pay close attention to the effects of the façade on the interior of the building, how light enters, what type of light, heating etc. For our next meeting I would like the team to have ideas of the types of materials they would like to consider, rubbings, photos, magazine cut-outs and even real samples.

THE SITE

Above is a plan of the school showing the site area we have chosen. This new intervention will link both buildings creating a communal hub space. We will use this space as an entrance hall, an assembly space, a sports hall and a lunch space. It is a multipurpose connector drawing together the whole school and creating one building.
