Tiger Way

This mixed use development delivers a beautiful new primary school and nursery alongside 89 high quality homes.

From the outset, both the client and design team wanted to create a school that both pupils and the community could be proud of; the BREEAM approach inspired the team to go above and beyond the initial aspiration. Far from being a hindrance, the mixed brief supported more efficient and innovative design solutions and enabled the building to meet Outstanding at design stage, rather than its initial target of Excellent.  The project team’s core principles were to retain the quality of the design outcome within the constrained viability of the scheme and ensure it carried through to construction. The focus on health and wellbeing and the BREEAM methodology has been key.

In 2018, Tiger Way won a BREEAM award for the best public project at design stage.
