영국 로얄 오페라 하우스의 소품을 제작하기 위한 워크샵 입니다.
이곳 워크샵은 오페라 하우스에서 사용되는 거대한 무대막 제작을 위한 페인트샵 목공 그리고
철골 제작에 관련된 워크샵을 포함 합니다. 특히 워크샵의 건축적 특징을 잘 나타내는 반구형태는
거대한 무대배경이 장애없이 제작 될 수 있도록 트러스를 이용한 무주공간으로 계획됩니다.
트러스 스트럭쳐 사이에 계획된 천창은 공간 깊숙히 주간의 빛을 유입시켜 작업환경을
보장하는 컨텐츠로 디자인되어 집니다.
이러한 워크샵의 강렬한 존재감은 프로뎍션 캠퍼스의 새로운 활력으로 정의 될 것입니다.

Nicholas Hare Architects
were appointed by the Royal Opera House in 2007 to design a new
production workshop for set construction and fabrication at a new site
in Purfleet Essex. The new building accommodates a large paint-shop for
vertical and horizontal scene-painting as well as carpentry and metal
workshops. The vaulted building form is designed to allow fully
assembled scenery to be seen as it will on stage, and incorporates
continuous rooflights set between the deep primary structural truss
members to provide even daylight with reduced glare. The building has a
strong presence on the site and provides a focus at the heart of the new
production campus.

The workshop was shortlisted for the New London Architecture Award in

Regeneration award at the 2011 RICS East of England awards.
The scheme recently received the RIBA East Spirit of Ingenuity Award for its “dedication to light and to the craft of making”.
“The workshop has exceeded all our expectations as a work place and is the envy of other Opera Houses around the world. It has totally transformed the way we build and paint our scenery.”
