AA VISITING SCHOOL

Date: 2017

Architect/Designer: Clementine Blakemore Architecture with Timber Workshop

Structural Engineer: Structure Workshop

Location: Kingcombe, Dorset

Timber Workshop worked alongside Clementine Blakemore and Common Ground during this 2 week Visiting School for the Architecture Association. Working with 9 international architecture students, the course involved the construction of a boardwalk and outdoor classroom structure for the Dorset Wildlife Trust. The students saw the project from log milling, workshop processing, prefabrication and timber framing, through to site construction.

In 2018 we will continue working with Kingcombe Wildlife Centre, located a few miles from Hooke Park – the AA’s rural campus in West Dorset. The project will focus on the second phase of a riverside boardwalk and outdoor classroom / events space.
