Award winning school puts Senior’s Hybrid solutions to the test

The independent girls’ school in Middlesex, which won the RIBA London Award 2014, was designed by Walter & Cohen Architects to achieve a BREEAM rating of ‘excellent’.Featuring aluminium on the exterior to provide a durable and low maintenance solution and engineered timber on the interior for a natural look and feel, Senior’s Hybrid range perfectly complements the school’s use of timber design elements both inside and out.

Senior’s Hybrid series 3 curtain walling system and Hybrid series 2 frameless casement windows were installed to the main teaching block and art centre to give sweeping views across the playing fields.  The Hybrid series 2 frameless casement windows provided the attractive seamless façade that the design team desired as well as giving impressive U-values and thermal performance.

Senior worked closely with leading fabricator Soundcraft to deliver the prestigious contract.
