The Bryant Harvey Partnership was commissioned to design a new teaching block
and travel centre in the grounds of this attractive urban campus. The new two
storey teaching block contains twelve general teaching spaces, two hairdressing
salons, a nursery, staff rooms, students common room, offices and cloakrooms.
The glazed “umbilical” link, has red framing and black inset panels and allows
access to the existing college buildings and provides a focal point at the pivotal
junction between old and new. A single storey building housing the travel centre
is located in a courtyard within the college and has a glazed pergola connecting
the hall to the cafeteria. Both buildings are steel frame structures with silver
aluminium cladding panels which provide a striking contrast to the existing
brick buildings especially when viewed from the adjacent park.
