Paisley Mills is going to transform into a learning centre. This learning hub will hold various learning activities for both children and adults, as well as other events throughout the year for the community. No matter what we will learn, education gives us the ability to see the world around us and changes it into something better. The new building is designed with curved floor plates that represent the curves of the Teeswater river. SITE PLANPaisley Learning Centre accesses are at the front and the side of the building. Pedestrians can access to building from the South entrance. East entrance accommodates visitors with vehicles and people who need to use ramp. ARCHITECTURAL FLOOR PLANSThe learning centre will be exposed through massive curtain wall on the East side. The curtain wall system is designed with a pattern to match existing wood cladding pattern, and to keep the heritage attribute of the building without adding too much comtemporary look to the existing. On the First Floor, visitors can easily get information through the reception at the front once entered. The middle space is open for gathering. Main feature of the first floor is the Café at the back providing both indoor and outdoor sitting for customers and public. Second Floor is the largest floor for all learning activities comprising active learning area and a quiet small library looking to the adjacent forest at the back. Third Floor features the largest and highest exterior deck that allows learners to recharge or patrons to hold any outdoor activities. ELEVATIONSBUILDING SECTIONWALL SECTIONPROJECT RENDERINGS
