- Summary:
- Julia Barfield founded Marks Barfield Architects (MBA) in 1989 with her late husband David Marks. After losing an ideas competition for a monument for the new millennium, the pair turned entrepreneur and set out to build it themselves. The result was the London Eye, and international fame for MBA. Here, Barfield discusses MBA's 2015 project for a primary school for the University Of Cambridge. Drawing on extensive research, the design facilitates the latest thinking in primary school teaching methods. With spaces clustered around a central courtyard, it features an open "learning street", a covered external canopy, and artwork that reflects the school's international outlook.
