HHA undertook the project to enhance dining facilities at Emanuel School in Wandsworth with the construction of a new dining hall extension. This addition now offers students a bright and contemporary dining experience overlooking the school’s sports pitches. During warmer months, sliding-folding doors along the south façade can be fully opened, seamlessly extending the dining area onto an external paved terrace. The design of the extension emphasizes integration and continuity with the existing pavilion building and school hall. It features white painted timber cladding and pre-patinated copper roofing, maintaining a harmonious aesthetic with neighbouring structures. The architectural form and detailing of windows, doors, and cladding are deliberately minimal and precise, contributing to the extension's contemporary clarity.
