4.5 Internal spaces
Our intention for this building is that it should feel
comfortable and uplifting, the opposite of an
institutional space.
Materials will be colourful and warm, chosen to
provide texture and to animate the spaces.
The spaces will be naturally lit and ventilated, with
opening windows, and windows carefully placed to
connect spaces to views both outside the building and
inside it, through glazed screens.
View of the foyer towards the office
Glazed screen and curtain provides different levels of
privacy at Maggie’s Cardiff
Mary’s, Primrose Hill
The large classroom at St Mary Magdalene is full of light and
provides a practical but characterful space for activities.
The counselling room will have some of the warmth
of the small private space at Maggie’s Cardiff
