YSP Education Centre

Client: Yorkshire Sculpture Park
Location: Wakefield
Construction Value: £400k
 
The primary aim of this building renovation was to create a stimulating new educational facility for the 40,000 plus school children that visit Yorkshire Sculpture Park each year. As a charity, YSP rely upon alternative revenue streams and the new café space forms a vital source of income along with upgrading visitor facilities within this area of the park.
 
The landscape design was also a crucial consideration ensuring it complements the wider Bretton Estate and Grade II Listed Parkland whilst providing discrete areas for displaying work and holding outdoor workshops.
 
Finally, to the south side of the refurbished building a new, accessible, external learning space has been created including the capacity to teach vulnerable groups.
