Drawing Studio in Poole, England by Crab Studio

Friday, November 30th, 2018

Article source: Crab Studio

A belief in the power of Drawing and its central role in artistic creativity is vociferously shared by Stuart Bartholomew, the Vice Chancellor and Head of Arts University Bournemouth and its architect alumnus, Sir Peter Cook. In 2014 Bartholomew invited Cook to design this building, which is dedicated to that pursuit. Cook’s office CRAB (the Cook-Robotham Architecture Bureau) with Jenna Al-Ali as Project Architect have then developed an instrument that is to be used by the students of all of its 17 departments. These range from painting, sculpture and Illustration, through to architecture, costume, drama, and model-making with the result becoming the first such dedicated Drawing Studio as a stand-alone structure to be built in a British art college for more than 100 years.

The Houseboat in Poole, England by MOLE ARCHITECTS

Friday, November 23rd, 2018

Article source: MOLE ARCHITECTS

The Houseboat is upside down, its main room raised up to the view. It’s also curved in plan, and split in two, one side raised above the other. It’s an odd fish of a house.

To understand the design, it’s necessary to know something of the main house. The site sits in the garden of The Boathouse, an intriguing insertion of the second class lounge salvaged from the SS Mauritania into a purpose-built modernist house built in 1936 by Mr Cullen..

Arts University Bournemouth Design Studios and Workshops in Poole, England by Design Engine

Wednesday, October 31st, 2018

Article source: Design Engine

The AUB Design Workshops & Studios Conversions consist of the transformation of two former on-campus halls of residence, originally constructed in 2001, into modern studio and teaching space for Arts University Bournemouth’s internationally renowned higher education courses.

The success of the institution, and the wider changing demands of higher education, instigated a reappraisal of the Halls’ use as part of Design Engine’s 2009 vision for the future masterplan for the University.
