Two new spaces at King David School in Linksfield by architect Asher Marcus, founder and lead architect of Hubo Studio, embrace an educational philosophy that sees architecture as an active element in the learning process.
IF YOU’RE A REGULAR VISI READER, YOU MAY RECOGNISE THE WORK OF ASHER Marcus and his Hubo Studio crew from the imaginative, colourful interiors they did for the Tshepo Jeans store in Hyde Park and the King David School library in Sandton.
The two new spaces on these pages, also for a King David School – The Studios design studio and robotics centre, and The Yards art and drama centre – are all about a progressive educational philosophy that respects and empowers learners, awakening curiosity and sustaining the senses.
The Studios is a revamp of two existing buildings and the space between them: two floors of a fairly typical two-storey school block (formerly a hostel), and then behind it, a space that used to be a computer room and library.
The centre not only had to transform the existing buildings, but also foster creativity, collaboration and problem-solving, as the spaces relate to the study of everything from design to robotics.
