I started working with Mowmacre Hill Primary School in November 2007 with workshops with Year 6 to instigate a design process, which then progressed into an exhibition of the children's work and their ideas for new spaces/areas within school grounds. After this stage, parents, staff and children of the school voted for their favourite.
Then the build began! A large watertight shelter/eco-dome for use as an outdoor classroom with a large staged area for performance with seating next to it.
This is the performance area, a 4 metre pentagon makes up the stage and seating all made with oak decking while the seating also has willow backing.
Inside the dome before the weather-proof membrane is attached.
The dome from the outside before the membrane is attached. Plants will be planted around the dome and allowed to grow up and over the dome which will help to make it even prettier!
Finishing off the inside of the dome, with the membrane now attached, more pictures to come...
These are shots from Cloud Wood from where the oak decking came from, all felled and planked to size on-site!
