£940,000 |
The new Learning Hub building at
King Edward VI Camp Hill School for Girls in
Birmingham comprises two science laboratories,
two classrooms and a training room, providing
essential teaching space for the school and a
training resource for wider use.
The form of the building is determined by the
need to preserve an important tree, with faceted
copper and brick facades following the lines of
the driveway and generating a natural courtyard
space in relation to the existing buildings on
the site.
The teaching and training spaces are clad in
pre-patinated copper whilst the circulation
areas and ancillary rooms are housed within a
buff brick ‘spine’ which wraps around the back
of the building.
