View ProductWhen the time came to create a new-build extension, Northbrook College seized the opportunity to refurbish its engineering block. Existing clerestory windows were leaking air and rainwater, overheating was an issue and the contractor needed specialist design input into rooflight curbs for the new build which could achieve a large reveal depth through the roof, and allow rainwater runoff.
Our team was brought in to revise the existing plans for both new build and refurbishment phases, where previous designs had fallen short on standards and budget. We were asked to provide solutions which would suit the architect’s aesthetic ambition, limit solar gain, improve acoustic insulation, and meet the M&E consultant’s predetermined calculations for free-flow ventilation. We consulted with the entire project team to draw up proposals, fine-tune and present final design drawings which met both brief and budget.
