Benenden School

Client: RPG Europe

Sector: Music & Education

Description of works:

This incredible building is not just a performance venue, but also a hub for teaching and practice. Its unique elliptical shape houses a 750-seat Concert Hall, over 20 bright and airy practice rooms, and a 150-seat Recital Hall, which seamlessly connects to the courtyard through stunning glazing.

The design of each room has been carefully crafted to cater to specific needs while maintaining versatility. From the latest digital media suites with cutting-edge recording capabilities to extensive landscaping for external performances, Benenden School has left no note unturned!

What sets this project apart is the commitment to achieving the highest acoustic performance levels. On arrival we were presented with a project that was behind on program, but also needed everything to be of the highest quality. Our expertise in installing timber linings to the main hall has transformed the space into a true auditory delight!

The team at Benenden School collaborated with various companies to ensure excellence in every detail Together, we have created an environment that adapts to evolving teaching practices and meets the educational needs of generations to come.
