...This was extremely detailed work, a project in which the overall flow and ‘elegance’ of movement throughout the estate was held in appropriate balance with the granular level of detail.

The building has been clad in copper, which should weather beautifully. Quattro worked closely with QEH to ensure the new materials were selected to complement those of the existing grade II listed school buildings.

The scheme design exceeded our expectations and provides a truly inspirational learning environment and asset to our school.

Due to its sensitive location, it was important for QEH that the new building was sympathetic to the neighbourhood, it's historical setting and to the green space of Brandon Hill. Quattro's enduring efforts in searching for the best design solution was instrumental in successfully negotiating Planning approval.

Quattro's close attention to detail and thought that went into the design and planning stage of the development is clearly evident and their thoroughness was maintained during the construction phase.

We selected the team because they combined experienced, imaginative and environmentally sensitive design capability with a highly responsive approach as regards the client brief, working within tight planning constraints whilst building a deep understanding of the students’ needs. In this regard, we were not disappointed.
