Brentwood School, Essex Education Building, Architect, Victorian Vicarage Property

Brentwood School Sixth Form Centre & Assembly Hall, Essex

Brentwood School Essex, south east England, UK - design by Cottrell & Vermeulen Architecture

29 Jun 2012 Brentwood School Sixth Form Centre & Assembly Hall, Essex Design: Cottrell & Vermeulen Architecture RIBA Awards 2012 Citation: Brentwood School Sixth Form Centre & Assembly Hall Three buildings celebrate the spirit of education, unfolding as a sequence of spaces for learning, socializing, and gathering: a new Sixth Form block, a remodelled Victorian vicarage, and a new assembly block which links to a sequence of other smaller external social areas. Admirable innovations include internal thermal chimneys in every classroom, natural ventilation panels next to windows, and pre-cast concrete panels used as formwork for the cast-in-situ concrete. Drawing inspiration from the existing Victorian vicarage, the new design is expressed in a language that is both contextual and contemporary. The sculpting of the roofs creates non-standard, domestic-scaled classrooms filled with natural light, reminiscent of the gabled roofs of the Victorian vicarage yet with an added measure of playfulness. pictures : Paul Riddle Brentwood School - RIBA Awards winner, 2012 Brentwood School Sixth Form Centre & Assembly Hall, Essex - Building Information Location: Brentwood School 6th Form & Assembly Hall, Ingrave Road, Brentwood, Essex Architect: Cottrell & Vermeulen Architecture Client: Brentwood School Structural Engineer: Engineers Haskins Robinson Waters Services Engineer: Max Fordham Contractor: Hutton Construction Contract Value: confidential Date of completion: Jul 2011 Gross internal area: 2,375 sqm Chair of Jury: Anna Liu Regional representative: Roger Shrimplin Lay assessor: Matt Jones Brentwood School Sixth Form Centre & Assembly Hall images / information from RIBA Cottrell Vermeulen Architecture
