8 July 2019 – Allen Edwards Primary School, Stockwell
Work is progressing well on our scheme in Stockwell, London. Click on the link below to see the latest time-lapse camera for progress to end of June.
The new 2FE school will replace the existing Allen Edwards Primary School building, and provide the community with a modern school consisting of well-considered spaces and a much improved layout. There will be the further benefit of two school halls, a studio, and an extensive landscaped playground.
Key drivers of the proposal were to provide a legible, well organised layout, and condense the footprint, whilst expanding the playground area. The school is now aligned with existing building frontages, infilling a gap in Studley Road street scene and engaging the surrounding environment. Architecturally the proposal took inspiration from the surrounding properties, to create a considered and formalised elevation, with a rhythm of recesses which serves to reduce the mass and weight.
