| The Project Background |
|
|
| The building is located on a restricted rural site adjacent to Whitstone Primary School. It's designed to accommodate 16 pupils and is due for completion in early July 2010. The building is sited next to existing portable building but unlike these this building engages with the natural garden play area to the east allowing secure free flow and making the most of the natural, rural, semi wooded setting. |
| The building has a north west facing roof slope with roof lights inserted into the roof construction to provide constant natural daylight into spaces below. The roof lights are to be fully automated to provide natural stack effect ventilation. |
| The building's roof is partly sedum to encourage wildlife and be sympathetic within the landscape character of the site, and partly natural slate with clay ridge tiles to match existing buildings. There are large glazed areas providing interaction with external areas and countryside views and a low-level wall to store above Office and Toy Library. |
