To coincide with an exhibition at the Architecture Centre exploring 20 years of the RIBA Stirling Prize from in May, AHMM will give a talk on the winning building from 2015, Burntwood School.

Paul Monaghan, director at AHMM, will share the story of the transformation of Burntwood School in Wandsworth, south London, which reinvents a 1950s modernist education campus for 2,000 pupils and 200 staff.

Comments on Burntwood School by the RIBA Stirling Prize 2015 judges:

“Burntwood School is the clear winner of the 2015 RIBA Stirling Prize. It encompasses great contemporary design and clever reuse of existing buildings as well as superb integration of artwork, landscaping and engineering. It is a genuine collaborative project. There was a wonderful working relationship between the head teacher and the architect: a true partnership of equals.”

This is an Architecture Centre event in partnership with the Bristol and Bath branch of RIBA.
