Creating an office space is one thing, a home another, but designing a space where creative minds are feeling motivated and inspired to quench their thirst for knowledge and finding education is something completely different. Add to that the fact that these spaces are not only supposed to be practical and safe but also need to consider a high volume of foot traffic, include the most advanced technology and be a space that includes several health benefits, taking care of the young and fresh minds entering the facility. This is the challenge the team at the office in university architecture in Oxfordshire, Resonant Architecture, takes on with a smile. While this is still a new practice, the team brings more than two decades of experience in the industry. It is this experience that makes them such a preferred choice when it comes to creating or transforming educational facilities that deliver optimal features.
“Creating educational facilities do bring several challenges. Whether it is creating schools where our team need to consider design elements such as playgrounds, halls and studios, or premises for tertiary education, we always need to take care of a range of features that do not apply to the average office block. Yet, we thrive on these kinds of designs as it requires that we take a step away from our platform of experience and venture into new and innovative designs that transform the industry and set it into a new and more advanced direction,” says Tom Dawson, the director to the creative team at Resonant Architecture.
This team already has several educational facilities to showcase in their portfolio. The work they have done varies from completely new designs to mere renovations. Some of the new designs required that the building they had to create had to fit in visually with the rest of the much more aged buildings on the premises, while the inside flaunted the most advanced and modern design features to create creative spaces.
“Today, buildings, especially those used for education, are no longer mere constructions that host a range of classrooms. No, the times and the trends have changed completely and now these buildings are turning into living and breathing structures that provide all the benefits you need while it also takes care of the health of those attending it,” Dawson continues enthusiastically on how the landscape of university architectural design has changed over recent years.
