School Shelter Provides Bright Dining Area in Portsmouth

When Ark Ayrton Primary School contacted us looking to add an outdoor dining canopy to their school we worked with them to design something a little special.

Project – Coloured Motiva Linear canopy at Ark Ayrton Primary School

Product – Motiva Linear

Requirement – Design doesn’t have to be boring.

In fact, should it ever be?

A splash of colour is not just a design feature, it adds personality and whilst qualities like ‘identity’ can feel intangible from a distance, the truth is this; The way we feel about a place can affect the way we behave within it.

Creative, playful spaces encourage creative, playful thinking.

So when Ark Ayrton Primary School contacted us looking to add an outdoor dining canopy to their school we worked with them to design something a little special.

Solution – Installing a colourful Motiva Linear canopy with bright red steelwork and a colourful polycarbonate roof in a range of colours we provided Ark Ayrton Primary School with more than a dining canopy.

It’s a social zone, but one with personality, with a playful, enigmatic feel that inspires everybody who uses it.

Result – Everybody that sees the shelter loves it, it’s been like adding a ray of sunshine on one of those dull, grey days we never get in the UK.

It’s bright and engaging and provides a motivational space for dining, a positive social zone that utilises two sets of doors to provide easy access from inside the school.

Ark Ayrton Primary School were so pleased, they’ve since asked us to return to install two more canopies and we’ll provide more photos as soon as we have them!
