in.it.studios have recently completed a garden
room extension for St. Oswalds Hospice in Newcastle. The studio space acts as Rehabilitation Room
for the hospice and allows for a peaceful and tranquil place for the patients
to relax in. The extension forms part of
a major refurbishment of the Hospice which was being undertaken by a separate
local contractor, T Manners & Sons.
The
garden room extension measures 5.9m deep x 7.6m wide and has created a predominant
feature for the hospice with it being clearly visible when approaching the main
entrance. Its cedar clad appearance and
timber construction distinguishes itself from the brick built hospice with a
contemporary aesthetic yet retains an appearance sympathetic to its
environment.
The
project was commissioned by the hospice being the client and working in
conjunction with Jane Darbyshire and David Kendall Ltd Architects of Newcastle
whom were the project management behind the major refurbishment scheme of the
hospice. The Architects were recently
shortlisted for their design efforts with St Oswalds Hospice, being nominated for the National Healthcare awards
in 2010.
in.it.studios
were initially contacted due to their ability to deliver a building in an
efficient and incredibly quick turnaround period whilst still maintaining a
high degree of quality. After discussions
in February 2011 followed by planning and building regulation necessities, the garden
room took 3 weeks to build and was finished 2 weeks before the planned
deadline date being the end of April.
Working
alongside T Manners & Sons, whom were the main contractor on site, the
building was delivered proficiently and within perfect schedule. Even though this well established building
company were more than competent in the construction of this Rehabilitation
Room, and were carrying out most of the building work on the project, they approached
in.it.studios to carry out the rehabilitation room as they were able to utilise
a prefabricated construction approach, meet the tight deadline and also provide
a very cost effective solution for both the Client and Contractor. In addition to this, because all the
manufacturing is done in-house by highly skilled carpenters and joiners,
in.it.studios were able to ensure the quality was maintained in all areas of
the build. The design was also adopted
without problems and changed along the way and during construction to meet the
architects and clients requirements.
Studio
extensions or standalone buildings provide an ideal solution for schools,
nurseries or homes as well as commercial properties requiring that extra living
/ working space for an affordable price, as demonstrated above. For the full range of contemporary garden
