A new arts facility within the grounds of Grade I listed college buildings. This brief provided an architectural challenge and rather than mimic the adjacent imposing gothic chapel, the arts building is a complete contrast; a strikingly modern arrangement of cantilevered cubes set high into the hillside. The new building provides arts accommodation including a photography area, general workspaces, lecture theatre and glazed atrium/display area. The feature elevations and wide spanning space have created a stunning update in a historic setting. With our advice the full project was achieved within budget.
