Science Building, Benenden School, Cranbrook, Kent
Hopkins Architects for Benenden School
GIA 2800m2
This science building expands the school courtyard with an internal atrium, from which classrooms, via balconies, are fed. This simple diagram is enlivened by a cylinder ‘pod’ of breakout space projecting into the atrium and a lining of timber panelling. Well detailed and neat.
