2020 Nelson/Marlborough Architecture Awards Winner
St Joseph's School, Nelson - New Classroom Block
Carefully sited to complete the western side of a central quadrangle, this building gives a contemporary edge to the pivotal open space at the heart of the campus of St Joseph’s School. Broad overhangs shield extensive glazing and provide sheltered outdoor space for learning and play. In a light and open counterpoint to the adjacent more traditional school buildings, operable doors allow free movement from within to without. Well-detailed internal spaces, with beneficial natural lighting and acoustics, provide flexible and highly appropriate learning environments.
