CHIPPING CAMPDEN SCHOOL, OXFORDSHIRE
PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE & TEACHING BASE
Chipping Campden School has a history that dates back to the 1440’s and is at the heart of Chipping Campden’s Community.
Currently under construction, the new Performing Arts Centre will hopefully become a hub for both school and community use, providing a multi-function performance space, a dance studio and several drama and general teaching classrooms.

The proposals are located on a prominent part of the school campus as well as in the heart of the Cotswold town. Visually the design tries to reflect this context with the use of traditional materials but within a modern form that contrasts against the pitched roofs and heavy masonry wall vernacular.
We have worked closely with the design team, including theatre specialists, to ensure that layout, acoustics, lighting and sound installations provide an adaptable but useable space for all types of performance.
