New dining hall to replace the existing dining facilities at Foremarke Hall Preparatory School. Design and full contract administration. The brief outlined a desire for an inside, outside connectivity with large opening doors and a relationship with the natural environment whilst improving efficiency when serving meals. The result a 700 meter squared, £1.8 million simple glass box pavilion with a floating extended roof canopy propped with structural trees relating to the surrounding mature landscaped gardens. The minimalist glass box is orientated as not to restrict views of the historic Foremarke Hall and to present panaromic views of the grounds.
