The school’s values guided the design of this building, and the architects reciprocated by putting those values on show with three interlocking spaces to create clarity, legibility and a unique teaching atmosphere. This school could be a new prototype for creative learning. It is a building of the arts, a gateway to Plymouth, and a new heart for the local community.

The Richard Feilden Foundation was set up in memory of the late Richard Feilden founder of Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios who tragically died in an accident at his home on the outskirts of Bath 7 years ago.

The RFF is the UK’s only charitable foundation specialising in Education, Architecture and Africa. The Mission is to improve the long-term sustainability and effectiveness of secondary and in particular, vocational education across the poorest regions of Africa. The first major programme of action is the 5-year development of Lake Bunyonyi Vocational & Secondary School (LBCCVSS) in Uganda, to turn it into an exemplar institution. The working model will then be rolled out across the rest of Uganda. To this aim the foundation is working closely with the Uganda Ministry of Education.

Geoff Rich comments:
“Richard Feilden was an inspirational work colleague and a very keen cyclist himself. The RFF does lots of amazing work to provide education and architecture for some of the poorest communities in the world. Taking part in the Cycle to Cannes is going to be the toughest physical challenge of my life but I’m sure the idea of raising funds for such a great cause will help keep me going!”

Power in Space Event, Bath Abbey, England

Masked Hall – Bath Abbey Undergoes Temporary Transformation

Internationally-acclaimed designers and engineers debated innovative ways of working with old buildings at Bath Abbey last Thursday. Architects Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios and engineers Buro Happold took over the medieval building for the day. Keynote speakers included Eric Parry and Steve Tompkins, of Haworth Tompkins who talked about the power of using space for temporary theatre and culture where the building becomes part of the performance.

A canopy of almost invisible wires stretched across the nave, a church full of people wearing great white face masks and a singing lesson were just three of the interludes which punctuated the day of talks. The soaring fan vaults and graceful arches of this beautiful church provided more than just a backdrop: they were part of the event itself.

Other speakers came from the Victoria & Albert Museum, Tate Modern, theatre designers Charcoal Blue and radical public realm designers MUF architects. Alice Dietsch from Amanda Levete Architects talked about innovation in the new Boilerhouse site on Exhibition Road while Geoff Rich of FCBS, who are currently working at project leaders on the Abbey’s Redevelopment Project, described their ambitions to bring underfloor heating to the Abbey courtesy of the great hot springs in the adjacent Roman Baths.

Peter Clegg said
“We managed to pull off quite a challenge: the venue was spectacular and we really made the most of it with specially commissioned art, music and lighting. The speakers were first class. It was a day to be proud of and I think it is up there with the best of all FCBS and Buro Happold events.”
