Croydon Regeneration project with McAlpine Construction

Over the first 5 weeks of this year our year 13 Design Pathway students have been working on a project for a live client, McAlpine Construction.
Their brief was simple - Create a series of inspiring images that presented the regeneration of Croydon in a positive light.
These images were then submitted to the client and are to be displayed at the Davis Training Suite in central Croydon which overlooks the site of the Council hall the is currently under construction. Not only will they be on display inside the building but some were also selected to be displayed on the hoardings around the building site and to be part of the visitors guide book.
The work has also been taken on by the Croydon Clocktower and will go on display as part of their Are we here? A Festival of Place. Their work will be on display in the Balcony Bar area of the Croydon Clocktower from the beginning of November.
This project has been an amazing experience and an unbelievable opportunity for our students to work with such a high profile client on a live project that has an enduring outcome.
I would like to offer our thanks to McAlpine Construction and Janine Jasper and the Croydon Clocktower and Sam Hunt.
Here is a little taster of what will be on display in and around Croydon:
