Training for Alice in Wonderland

Won in competition we initiated our work with this college designing an adaptable performance space and renovation of an existing 1960’s building to provide a new Centre for Creative Industries.

This provides a focus for Arts, Photography, Media and Gaming skills development and a location for the students to interact with local businesses.We extended our relationship with the college with further projects at their Dover and Folkestone campuses and completed a major renovation and repurposing project to create the award winning Yarrow Hotel. This is a unique training hotel offering 4 star facilities with staffing by students, Spa and high quality restaurant and training kitchens are included. The grade 2 listed building offered many challenges, but we managed to create a unique facility much loved by the local community and visitors alike.
