Feilden Fowles设计的Hazlegrove学校的Fitzjames教学中心获得了2015年英国皇家建筑师协会西南奖和2015年英国皇家建筑师协会西南年度客户奖。评委会评论说,”该建筑证明了客户-建筑师的关系极有能力提供令人惊叹的建筑解决方案,激发并提升用户的体验”。

The Fitzjames Teaching and Learning Centre, Hazlegrove School by Feilden Fowles has won an RIBA South West Award 2015 and the RIBA South West Client of the Year Award 2015. The jury commented that the ‘building is a testament to the fact that the client – architect relationship was extremely capable of delivering stunning architectural solutions that inspire and enhance the users’ experience’.

Hazlegrove是一所独立的日间和寄宿预备学校,学生年龄从2岁半到13岁。该校拥有一座17世纪的二级保护建筑,坐落在200英亩的公园里。菲茨杰姆教学中心于2014年秋季正式开放,体现了学校的雄心壮志,即通过提供灵活的教学和学习空间的创新安排,鼓励学生独立学习,从而灌输对学习、探究和智力的热爱。这座砖砌建筑和周围的外部庭院位于校园两条关键轴线的末端,在学校二级保护建筑的中心位置创造了一个新的学术中心。设计参考了教育理论家Bart McGettrick的研究工作,在2012年Feilden Fowles被任命后不久,他就在设计过程中被咨询。这导致了对教会和修道院类型的探索,这被广泛认为是成功的教育空间模式。其结果是围绕一个大型中央资源空间设计的教室和休息空间,学生可以在其中以小组形式工作,并在教室外使用资源,同时受到被动的监督。

Hazlegrove is an Independent Day and Boarding Preparatory School for pupils aged two and a half to 13 years. The school occupies a 17th century Grade II listed house and is set in 200 acres of parkland. The Fitzjames Teaching and Learning Centre, which officially opened in autumn 2014, embodies the school’s ambition to instil a love of learning, enquiry and intellectual rigour, by providing flexible teaching and learning spaces in an innovative arrangement to encourage independent learning. Located at the end of two key axes in the school campus, the brick building and surrounding external courtyard creates a new academic hub at the heart of the school’s Grade II listed campus. The design is informed by the research work of educational theorist Bart McGettrick, who was consulted early on in the design process shortly after Feilden Fowles’s appointment in 2012. This led to the exploration of ecclesiastical and monastic typologies, which are widely accepted as successful spatial models for education. The result is classrooms and break out spaces designed around a large central resource space, in which students can work in small groups and use resources outside the classroom context whilst being passively supervised.

灵活的空间配置、视觉透明程度和声学控制相结合,确保在更传统的教室环境和开放的资源空间之间取得成功的平衡。Fitzjames为改善场地的无障碍环境做出了巨大贡献,用一个完全无障碍的六间教室设施取代了六个无法进入的临时教室。一个新的庭院还将场地水平线与相邻的教学楼和相邻的Woodlands大楼连接起来,定义了学术校园的一个基石。

The flexible spatial configuration, degree of visual transparency and acoustic control combine to ensure a successful balance between more traditional classroom environments and the open resource space. Fitzjames makes a strong contribution to improving accessibility on the site, replacing six inaccessible temporary classroom blocks with a fully accessible six-classroom facility. A new courtyard also mediates site levels to adjacent teaching blocks and to the adjoining Woodlands building, defining a cornerstone to the academic school campus.

该建筑是以现代的方式设计的,其风格和材料与原有的学校建筑相协调。外墙采用了古典的形式,旨在建立一个公民的存在,并强调前面庭院的作用。它的入口庭院和柱廊的顺序在过去的标志性建筑中是有先例的,包括Schinkel的Altes博物馆。伍德兰街区的新木制顶棚和菲茨杰姆斯的预制柱廊提供了有盖的外部休息空间,同时为庭院带来了统一感和公民的存在。在材料上,建筑的色调和纹理参考了Hazlegrove House两侧现有的漂亮的红砖墙。

The building is designed in a contemporary idiom, in a style and materialisation harmonious with the original school building. Adopting a classical formality, the façade aims to establish a civic presence and emphasise the role of the courtyard in front. Its sequencing of entrance courtyard and colonnade has a precedent in iconic buildings of the past including Schinkel’s Altes Museum. The new timber canopy to the Woodlands block and pre-cast colonnade of Fitzjames provide covered external break-out space whilst bringing a sense of unity and civic presence to the courtyard. Materially, tones and textures of the building reference the existing, handsome red brick walls flanking Hazlegrove House.

Feilden Fowles与Ibstock在Swanage的工厂合作,开发了手工红砖和釉面黑头,进一步增加了佛兰德邦德的深度。位于北德文郡的一位陶艺家铸造了4000块彩色釉面砖,装饰在柱廊的内墙。为了让学校的学生们参与到新建筑的建设中来,Feilden Fowles与学校合作,促进参与性的釉面研讨会,使他们能够更好地了解建筑的工艺。砖块与建筑预制混凝土柱廊和柱头相辅相成,强调了立面的合理性。中央资源空间是由一个钢架构成的。内部的特点是由十字形的柱子支撑着上面的阳台,并在上面形成一个拱形的桁架,实现了从地面到屋顶结构的强有力的连续线条,并创造了一个真正的振奋人心的空间来激发学习。

新建筑采用了结构优先的可持续发展方法;它具有良好的隔热性能,自然通风,并实现了良好的日照水平,这些策略将能源消耗降至最低,并确保了舒适的学习环境。在该中心的落成典礼上,校长理查德-芬威克说:”除了是建筑和施工上的胜利,我们相信它对未来的教育做出了明确的战略声明。它的半开放式设计使学生能够越来越独立地学习,冲出教室,利用他们指尖上的技术资源。这将使他们能够作为自信、独立和相互依赖的学习者为未来做好准备。

Feilden Fowles worked with Ibstock’s factory in Swanage to develop handmade red bricks and glazed black headers to add further depth to the flemish bond. A ceramicist based in North Devon cast the 4000 coloured glazed bricks that adorn the inner walls of the colonnade. To engage pupils of the school in the construction of their new building, Feilden Fowles worked with the school to facilitate participatory glazing workshops, so that they could better understand the craftsmanship of the building. The brick is complemented by architectural precast concrete colonnade and cills, which emphasises the rationality of the façade. The central resource space is constructed of a steel frame. The interior is characterised by cruciform columns that support the upper balcony and form an arched truss above, achieving a strong continuous line from ground plane to roof structure and creating a truly uplifting space to inspire learning.

The new building adopts a fabric first approach to sustainability; it is well insulated, naturally ventilated and achieves excellent daylight levels, strategies which minimize energy consumption as well as ensuring a comfortable learning environment. At the Centre’s inauguration, Headteacher Richard Fenwick said: ‘As well as being an architectural and constructional triumph, we believe it makes a clear and strategic statement about the future of education. Its semi-open-plan design allows pupils to learn with an increasing amount of independence, breaking out of the classroom and utilising the technological resources that they have, literally at their fingertips. This will enable them to become equipped for the future as confident, independent and interdependent learners.’
