We provided quantity surveying services for the New Art Department at Springfield Convent School in Wynberg, an earlier phase in the same long-term framework of considered insertions into this historic Cape Town school campus. The double-volume studio space brings in natural light through large windows and a mezzanine level, connecting students to the landscaped gardens beyond while giving the school a dedicated space for creative work.
Our role covered cost planning and budget management, helping deliver a facility that balances heritage sensitivity with the practical needs of a working art department. The project went on to receive a CIfA (Cape Institute for Architecture) Award for Architecture in 2013, followed by a SAIA (South African Institute of Architects) Award of Merit and Award of Excellence in 2014.
