架构师提供的文本描述。考虑到“使用的普遍性”，并利用连通性和灵活性为学生提供一个他们控制自己教育的地方，威斯敏斯特学院的开放空间配置既是一个学习的舞台，也是一个创造性的工作场所。

Text description provided by the architects. Thinking about ‘Universality of Use’ and employing connectivity and flexibility to provide pupils with a place where they take control of their own education, Westminster Academy’s open configuration of spaces is as much a creative workplace as it is a theatre of learning.

一个长方形的砌块，用玻璃板和五颜六色的陶瓷砖做成层层，从它坚韧的环境中升起，提供了一个城市地标。该计划以一层“市场”为中心，将所有关键的公共空间连接起来，并通过一个全高度的中庭将整个学校从视觉上连接起来。

A long, rectangular block, stratified with glass panels and coloured bands of terracotta tiles, rises up out of its gritty context to provide a civic landmark. The plan centres on a ground floor ‘marketplace’ which links all key communal spaces and visually connects the entire school via a full-height atrium.

在建筑物内，一个坚固的材料调色板未完成的混凝土，木材和油漆块与超大规模的图形和艺术品相结合，以突出学习环境，并鼓励展览和展示。这个斯特林奖-入围的城市学院容纳1175名学生和128名工作人员。当地社区在项目期间得到了广泛的咨询，可以利用学校的大部分设施和体育设施。

Within the building, a robust material palette of unfinished concrete, timber and painted blockwork combines with super scaled graphics and artworks to foreground the learning environment and encourage exhibition and display. This Stirling Prize-shortlisted city Academy accommodates 1175 students and 128 staff. The local community, who were extensively consulted with during the project, has access to much of the school and its sports facilities.
