New Dining Hall

King's College School, Cambridge

In 2022 AMA developed proposals for a New Dining Hall. The building is an infill between two wings of the original school allowing for greater connectivity between the Kitchen and Dining Hall.

 
Of great benefit is the opportunity for pupils to enter the hall from the playground, queue up at the servery without crossing paths with those vacating, providing a much better configuration than previously experienced.  

The visually impactful roof geometry provides north light into the Dining Hall and the three large two-centred arched doorways supply generous natural daylight to illuminate the space.

​

Whilst the brief did not specifically request a mutli-functional space, the opportunity to hold mixed uses is offered, whether for parent’s evenings or key low scale events.
