Somerset Colleges Design Centre reveals its curved atrium shape and circular stair forms at the heart of a new technology hub. TVS Architects design will inspire a learning ecosystem infusing the creative experience with the building identity, whilst maintaining a nuanced spatial pragmatism.
Nestled in between two existing buildings, the Tech Hub is absorbed by the negative spaces produced from the surrounding buildings. Each zone is designed to provide a unique learning experience, but at the same time the space has been thoughtfully designed to give flexibility to the user of the space; This is very important for the design of educational spaces, the user must be the author of the space, choosing to use or discard the tools presented to him.
