New Academy Aylesbury Estate, London, London, United Kingdom. Architect: Allies and Morrison, 2012. Interior View in corridor.
The Aylesbury Estate is currently undergoing regeneration and this new Academy, with its Engineering specialism, will address the shortfall in local school places for boys. Proposals retain, refurbish and remodel a four-storey Victorian Board School building and add new accommodation to maximise use of the tight urban site. A new metal-clad pavilion provides a welcoming entrance and a new four-storey brick building creates a range of open and enclosed learning spaces, grouped around a central atrium, for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM). A flexible new performance space opens onto a linear play area which incorporates space for outdoor teaching and dining and leads to a new stand-alone Sports Hall. Facades incorporate generous windows for natural light and ventilation and the buildings will connect into a local district heating system.
