St Margaret Clitherow Catholic Primary School
An interior school precedent demonstrating how clustered modular furniture, vibrant accent walls, and abundant overhead glazing create a flexible, luminous early-learning environment.
- What we like about this project
- Modular hexagonal tables can be reconfigured into various shapes or combined into larger collaborative groups.

- Geometry
- Open-plan rectangular learning space organized with clustered hexagonal tables and perimeter storage units, leading to a glazed canopy-covered zone on the right.
- Facade system
- Full-height aluminum-framed glazed curtain wall with overhead sloped structural glass canopy.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame with lightweight partitioning and glazed roof canopy.
- Spatial scale
- Child-scaled furniture and low storage units within a standard institutional room height.
- Lighting
- Bright, even artificial illumination from ceiling-mounted flat panels complemented by abundant daylight streaming through full-height perimeter glazing and a sloped glass roof.
- Atmosphere
- Optimistic, clean, and active, filled with diffused daylight and primary-color accents.
- Environmental context
- Indoor educational facility with an exterior playground visible through large glass doors and sloped glazing.
- Spatial experience
- The space feels open, bright, and functionally zoned for collaborative early-years learning, with clear sightlines across flexible furniture arrangements.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating wooden chair frames and hexagonal table clusters create an organic rhythm across the light grey resilient floor.
