Feilden Fowles has won an invited competition to design the new head office for one of the UK’s leading outdoor learning charities, The Ernest Cook Trust. The site is within the walled garden at Fairford Park, Gloucestershire and the project sensitively restores the north wall of the garden introducing a new building draws inspiration from victorian glasshouses and the microclimates created within walled gardens. The design bridges the wall with a combination of workplace, education facilities and meeting areas. See more about the project here.

Widcombe Great Hall is an exciting new commission for Widcombe Junior School in the heart of Bath. The project, won through a design competition, will deliver a new Great Hall on the foundations of the original victorian primary school. The brief called for the production, cooking, eating and recycling of food to be integral to the design and for an innovative environmental strategy. The Great Hall is to be both a school and community resource with a bold civic presence. Feilden Fowles is supporting the school to raise further funding for this transformative project.
