Colston's Girls' School, Bristol, United Kingdom. Architect: Walters and Cohen Ltd, 2011. New entrance foyer during inauguration
Extensive consultation and a space audit identified the need for large, flexible teaching spaces for drama, music and art. Drama and art are accommodated in a new, three-storey building on the Cheltenham Road frontage. The red brick building complements the Victorian school buildings adjacent; together they frame the new student entrance, a two-storey, lightweight glass infill that also serves as an entrance foyer for performances in the arts building. Music has its own stand-alone pavilion comprising two large, multi-functional spaces and three practice rooms. The roof of the pavilion meets and generously extends the existing external social space.
