Royal College of Art, Battersea

Clickfix sculpts the light in royal art & design studio

Brett Martin supplied the polycarbonate panels used to glaze the striking northlights in the roof exhibition space in the new Battersea campus of the Royal College of Art, London which the college described as ‘the most significant campus development in their history’

The architects brief was to bring together art, design, science and technology in one place and the building has been certified as BREEAM excellent.

Marlon Clickfix pans across 2 vertical sections in the top floor of the 4-storey Studio Building dedicated to traditional art and design disciplines.

The product was selected due to its ease of installation, thermal insulation and high levels of natural light which allows for large, glazed areas. 

The bright space and the sheer size of the glazing in this building illustrates the benefits of the product wonderfully and as stated by the guardian “The space beneath the big triangular skylights is glorious”.
