RECENT PROJECTS

St Albans High School for Girls -
Biology Laboratory

 

We refurbished an existing science laboratory to create an environment for both practical and conventional learning.  To ensure that all students were forward facing we installed long island style workbenches.  We were also asked to incorporate storage cupboards under the students workbenches.  The carcasses were finished in Pear with Capri blue doors.

Aylesbury Grammar School -
Professor William Mead Library

We took an old science laboratory and adjoining offices and transformed them into a light and airy library and learning space.  We used white Kraft oak with 40mm shelves for the book storage units and Tiepolo walnut for the student desks.  The librarians desk was also created using Tiepolo walnut complete with a 'floating' 20mm acrylic shelf and logo fascia.

Tring School - Media Studies

 

We incorporated structural pillars into our room design which enables all students a line of sight to newly installed TV monitors, an essential component of delivering this subject effectively.  The desks were designed to maximise the number of desktop computers within the designated space.

Swanbourne House School -
Sports Bag Storage

 

We designed, manufactured and installed open-fronted sports bag storage units.  Each aperture was specifically sized for the Swanbourne House School sports bag.  The units were manufactured from 1.5 mm mild steel sheet, all exposed edges were dutch folded to remove the sharp edges.  The units were supplied with adjustable levelling feet and powder coated in RAL 5019 Capri blue.

St Louis Catholic Primary School -
Offices and Specialist Storage

 

This was a 2 stage project.  Initially to supply, design and install bespoke desking and storage solutions to the Bursar's and Headteachers offices.  Thereafter we were asked to design and install four areas of storage wall for theatrical production, musical instruments and props.

Bottisham Village College -
Science Laboratories and Prep Room

 

We were asked to create 2 general science laboratories with defined areas for both practical and conventional teaching.  Each room has air conditioning, air handling and CO2 monitoring, all contained within a newly created ceiling void above an LED lit 600mm ceiling grid.  We also installed a new technicians preparation room with storage wall and fume cupboard.

Aylesbury Grammar School -
Sixth Form Learning Centre

 

To accommodate an increasing 6th form student body, we transformed the old school library into a 6th form study centre, created an additional study centre in a redundant locker storage area and added seating and tables in a common room.  The school also added an external seating area.  The finished project created individual seating for in excess of 400 students.

Bottisham Village College - Classrooms

 

We were awarded the contract to supply and install classroom furniture and accessories to sixteen newly refurbished classrooms.  We supplied UK manufactured, fully welded tables and the industry acknowledged EM series chair.

Aylesbury Grammar School -
Physics Laboratories

 

The last two physics laboratories were refurbished during the Summer of 2016.  This included the creation of a new room - we took a smaller space and extended it by removing a wall leading to a storage area resulting in a purpose built physics laboratory in excess of 100 m2.  The final room was then transformed to give all five physics laboratories the same look and feel.

Aylesbury Grammar School -
Sixth Form Common Room

 

Our brief was to re-model the existing space to create a modern coffee shop environment whilst increasing the number of seats available.  The existing servery was moved to create the additional space required.  New external doors and a queuing area were installed.

Aylesbury Grammar School -
Biology Block

 

We started with a purpose built ‘empty shell’. We designed and built 4 biology laboratories and 2 prep rooms to include all internal walls, ceilings and floors, services and furniture. Services including full air handling, heating and air conditioning were installed.

Princes Risborough School - Sixth Form
Room
 

We undertook a conversion of an old gym into a 6th Form centre and LRC.  A specialist lighting engineer was consulted to ensure the best lighting of a very large space whilst keeping aesthetics as a priority.  Different learning areas were created including an integrated ‘pod’ for individual tuition or group meetings.

 

The Royal Grammar School -
Storage Wall
 

We updated existing classroom used for teaching a variety of subjects.  We provided student furniture and seating with technology based teacher wall incorporating a large flat screen TV and tradition sliding whiteboard together with a large flexible storage area.

 

Downside Primary School -
Computer Room
 

We designed and created island and perimeter work stations in an iMac suite.  This included an acoustic wall to prevent noise transfer and all colours, materials and finishes were carefully selected to complement the Apple inspired teaching space.

 

Mandeville School - Reception Pod
 

We created a stand alone ‘pod’ within a very large reception area allowing for private meetings with parents and students.  The free standing acoustic circular meeting pod allowed for complete privacy within a public space with a striking design.

 

St Columba's College - Science Block

 

We undertook a refurbishment of the entire science block from 2012 – 2014 which included 7 laboratories, prep room staff offices and toilets.  By careful planning, we created an additional teaching laboratory within the existing footprint whilst extending the prep room and chemical store.

Aylesbury Grammar School -
Music Room / Storage
 

This project involved the conversion and re-design of 2 existing teaching rooms to include performance stages, bespoke music storage and a combination of traditional teaching and more technology based teaching.  This allowed for both conventional teaching and performance based learning.

We delivered book storage and a combination of formal and informal learning spaces with a mixture of soft furnishings, sofas, circular and square tables and chairs.  We supplied contemporary aluminium tables and chairs for the external learning spaces adjoining the library.

 

The Misbourne School - Staff Room
 

This new build space created a staff area with soft seating.  We achieved this through a variety of size and shapes of sofas and table.  The bespoke storage wall provided pigeon holes and cupboards.  A space-saving kitchenette area completed efficient use of space.

 

Southend High School -
Science Laboratories
 

We converted the Hitchcock Library into 2 science laboratories which included fume cupboards, storage and a traditional island based layout for an effective use of space.

The Misbourne School - Sixth Form
 

A new-build space was designed to house informal and formal group and individual learning areas through a combination of bespoke tables and study booths.  The whole build had a lime green and purple theme to which we carefully matched all furniture to complement this theme.

 

Mandeville School - Conference Room
 

Through the provision of individual seats with integrated writing tablets the room could be used as a teaching room, for conferences or for parent consultation.  All chairs were stackable and can be moved to the periphery to allow for group activities.
