Newmarket Academy Library Extension

The new library helps put literacy and reading at the heart of the school, acting as a beacon and source of pride for students. Modern construction in steel and glass creates a light-filled, double height space at first floor, linked via terraced seating to the refurbished ground floor. An undercroft maintains the flows of children past the library and provides external teaching space. It creates an inspiring, multifunctional series of spaces to engage and stimulate students into the curriculum.
