Cofa Courtyard, Coventry College

Following a successful tender process, Inside were appointed to complete another exciting project to transform a disused external courtyard area into a new internal multi functional learning environment. 

A substantial amount of re-design was required to meet the constraints of the budget. Inside assembled our very best design team and got to work straight away in February 2024. We priroritised what was most time critical in terms of design and started in the ground whilst the services and finishes were still being developed.

One of the key design criteria was to gain as much natural light as possible and so huge skylights were designed into the structural steel work frame.

The end result is a fantastic new auditorium space for the college to use in many different ways.

The works included:

• Ground Works
• Structural Steelwork
• Roofing including skylights
• VRF Air-conditioning & Ventilation 
• Small Power & Lighting 
• Fire Alarms & CCTV
• Curtain Walling
• Windows
• External Doors
• Auditorium and Booth Seating
• Suspended Ceilings & Acoustic Panels Treatment to the Hollow Rib deck
• Audio Visual
• Bespoke Joinery
• Décor
• Floor Coverings
