Watford Grammar - Washroom Refurbishment

Watford Grammar School for Girls is an all-girls academy based in Hertfordshire, whose pupils range between the ages of 11 to 18. After hearing about our extensive capabilities in re-designing functional yet inspiring workspaces within the educational sector, they enlisted our help and requested that we transform some of the learning environments for their prestigious school.

Watford Grammar’s Washroom Refurbishment

The Challenge

Watford Grammar for Girls had an issue with their existing washroom capacity. Students were having to cross large parts of the estate to use a facility and disabled access was an issue.

With a limited budget and restricted space where on earth could they create a washroom block with 14 fully segregated cubicles.

The Solution

Firstly the ideal location across the estate was identified, next was what could be done to achieve a washroom block aroudn that area within the restricted budget.

It had to be a refurbishment of an existing space. Taking into account existing services and cost implications an existing technology room was identified as the most suitable space.

Haringey College

Haringey College

Within higher education in particular, it’s always a great idea to keep spaces lively and up to date with the latest in educational design. Students in higher education today now have more freedom in selecting where they study, with an abundance of new schools and colleges providing a variety of different courses and learning environments.

Haringey College Reception Refurbishment

At Brookhouse UK, we have a highly regarded and respected level of proficiency in developing innovative, bright spaces within educational settings. That’s why Haringey Sixth Form College came to us in requesting that we design a new reception area and office space for their campus. They’d recently had their building refurbished, so they were looking for a cohesive design that would complement the successful refurb.

Within higher education in particular, it’s always a great idea to keep spaces lively and up to date with the latest in educational design. Students in higher education today now have more freedom in selecting where they study, with an abundance of new schools and colleges providing a variety of different courses and learning environments.

Highlighting the use of innovative, forward-thinking design can improve enrolment rates for any school. When combined with design ingenuity in an aesthetically pleasing environment, prospective enrolees are more likely to trust the school’s level of commitment to its students.

Our team at Brookhouse UK has years of experience in working within the educational sector. It’s the techniques refined over these years that allow us to undertake our projects with flair, each and every time. We do this without causing any notable amount of disruption to the everyday lives of staff and students.

As always, our clients love our work, and Haringey Sixth Form College was no exception. The transformation we made to their reception area and offices has had a great impact on the school’s potential, and we imagine it will continue to benefit them and future students for years to come.

Combining Branding and Interior Design

As renowned designers for modern educational settings, we understand the great impact that incorporating branding can have on any interior design project. Considering the success of Haringey Sixth Form College’s instantly recognisable lime colour scheme, it became immediately obvious to us that we had to infuse this palette throughout our designs. This ultimately creates a more cohesive design, reminding staff and students of the entity they’re working and studying within.

Haringey College was extremely impressed with the ways we used their signature colour palettes to bring their new interiors to life. Adding a touch of branding to their spaces means students feel at home in their learning environments, without going too overboard.

In balancing the design, we utilised mixed materials such as muted grey wooden surfaces. These worked alongside the vibrant pops of colour to create a contemporary yet warm and welcoming space. Modern lighting systems mean the learning areas appear increasingly spacious, providing economical solutions that will remain functional for many years.

Our New Covid-19 Project Methodology

In working with Haringey College, we had to undertake strict precautions with regards to limiting the spread of Covid-19. We therefore implemented the guidelines outlined in our thoughtfully designed Covid-19 Project Methodology throughout the task. The health and safety of all our staff and clients alike is extremely important to us at Brookhouse UK.

We are dedicated to doing all we can to provide a safe working space for our team members. This is a philosophy that, in turn, protects all who will utilise our spaces in the near future. We took all safeguarding very seriously while working on the Haringey College project, considering social distancing measures, upholding regular sanitisation and cleaning routines and working in a manner that put safety first.

Haringey Sixth Form College were pleased to see we held their staff and students’ wellbeing with a high level of regard, so they could rest assured that we took the necessary precautions in developing their new space.

Heston Community

Heston Community

Heston Community approached us for washroom refurbishment for their establishment, we stripped out the previous washroom and provided them with a brand new, and stylish washroom.

Heston Community’s Washroom Refurbishment

Heston Community approached us as they needed a washroom refurbishment of their rundown and used facilities. After fitting brand new lavatories, privacy dividers, urinals, sinks, taps and hand drying facilities we have completely modernised their previously dull facilities.

Adopting a modern and simplistic design that would last for decades, it is clear now that the state of the brand new washrooms is now creative, and an inviting atmosphere. Using automatic taps and hand drying systems to reduce the transfer of bacteria is just one of the many ways we have inspired this washroom facility at Heston Community. Fitting new tiling, paint and lighting has made this once bland room, more alive than ever.

Working with Heston Community was a project that we are very proud of, here at BrookhouseUK, we worked with Heston and went through designs and initial briefings to understand the clients each and every requirement to make sure that they are satisfied with the result.

It is clear in the pictures below that the washroom was a huge success and will be remembered for decades to come.

Crown Lane Primary

Crown Lane Primary Washroom Refurbishment

Crown Lane Primary School approached us for washroom refurbishment for boys and girls washrooms, as well as a new staffroom design for their hard-working members of faculty.

Crown Lane’s Washroom Refurbishment

Brookhouse UK was given the privilege of being tasked with the washroom refurbishment of some of Crown Lane Primary School and Children’s Centre facilities. Located in Lambert Square, London, the school got in touch with us as they wanted to work closely with a reputable educational refurbishment company that could help them achieve the results they were looking for.

As a company, we have taken great pride in the reaction from the school’s faculty, pupils and parents alike. This demonstrates our potential for creating functional facilities that impress a wide range of ages! Our dedication to designing new environments and facilities that suit our ever-changing modern world is now more paramount than ever, and we endeavor to keep building upon this dedication as we transform educational facilities throughout the London area.

Ofsted described the school as being “highly inclusive,” a phrase that represents their dedication to providing excellent educational facilities for a range of students. Achieving and respecting true diversity is one of the key goals they strive towards as a community, and this is evident throughout the designs we implemented throughout the premises.

Crown Lane was also recently awarded the IQM Centre of Excellence award for 2019 – 2020. Within this report, the children have demonstrated how pleased and proud they were to be able to show off their new facilities. As inclusion remains something the school focuses on, their new gender-neutral toilet provisions allow the children to learn more about the idea of diversity within their thoughtfully designed educational settings.

At Brookhouse UK, we firmly believe that a child’s learning environment can have a strong influence on how they learn as individuals. We therefore implement our years of expertise in designing functional, dynamic spaces for students of any background to learn from. Even from outside the classroom, the provision of essential facilities that are designed with the students in mind is crucial to their educational development.

Bourne Hall

Bourne Hall

Bourne & Ewell Council Washroom Refurbishment

Bourne & Ewell Council approached us for washroom refurbishment for their mens, and ladies washrooms in their headquarters in Epsom. 

Bourne Hall’s Washroom Refurbishment

Bourne Hall approached us to refurbish their mens and ladies washrooms as they felt they needed a refresh and wanted to see the difference that we could make to their current washrooms. After stripping the current washrooms, we began to design and build the space from the ground up, adopting a minimalistic yet stylish approach that doesn’t hinder the washrooms’ functionality.

Bourne Hall is a popular location and the washroom refurbishment project is going to be attended by plenty of people daily, so it was important that it was easy to maintain, yet functional at every hour of the day, adopting for easy to refill dispensers,  automatic stainless steel taps, and refillable BlueOcean toilet roll dispensers.

We worked very, very closely with the facilities managers at Bourne Hall to make sure that we delivered the perfect project that we had promised, making sure that it met every requirement, including a speedy delivery.

‘Brookhouse has refurbished public conveniences at Bourne Hall Pavilion, Ewell. We were impressed with the produced design and the fact that completed work was even better that on a CGI proposal. Moreover, the quality was good and the project was completed right first time without any outstanding items. We would like also to highlight that the work was programmed excellently by avoiding noisy and inconvenient works during working hours which ultimately relieved us from possible complaints and reduced inconvenience. And most importantly, the work has been completed under the budget which allowed us to achieve our financial targets for savings this year’
