Project Description::
Tonkin Zulaikha Greer have completed the design and site master planning for this integrated education development. The project includes a prestigious three-level advanced Secondary School, with integrated dining, music and sport facilities, and a separate major leisure and sporting Aquatic Centre with restaurant and function rooms.
The projects links to an existing Primary School, under the management of Nord Anglia. Detailed facility briefing and design was undertaken by TZG using local and overseas benchmarks, to meet the special needs of the worldwide education provider.
Surrounding the school and its central green are 50 high-quality residential villas and a waterfront major park. New roads, a canal and access bridge are all part of the design, undertaken by TZG and Context landscape.
The overall project unties sensitive site and water management with low-energy passive ventilation design and straightforward detailing.
Using fast-track design and construction management, the project opened in 2004, in under 18 months from design commencement.
