Alnwick Garden Pavilion - Hopkins Architects

First landscaped in 1750 and with a long and storied history, the Alnwick Garden had fallen into disrepair and was closed by 1950.

Alnwick Garden Pavilion - Hopkins Architects

A major redevelopment began in 1997 and by 2001 the first of several phases of dramatically transformed and contemporary public garden space was opened to the public.

Alnwick Garden Pavilion - Hopkins Architects

The revamped garden proved extremely popular for members of the public and a building was soon needed to welcome and care for them. The new pavilion we designed for the site serves this purpose and is built off the enclosing entrance wall on a site overlooking the Garden.

It includes a restaurant and function room arranged on either side of a covered terrace from which visitors to the site can enjoy the garden in shelter and shade. Kitchens and backup spaces are housed below.

Conceived as a contemporary greenhouse, the building houses organic, barrel-vaulted spaces formed by timber and steel lattice roofs covered in inflated transparent or translucent ETFE pillows. These reduce the effects of solar heating and glare. External walls are either glazed with sliding doors or fixed with solid timber panels.

Chepauk Cricket Stadium - Hopkins Architects

However, since the construction of the stadium in the early seventies, the characteristic ’swing’ of the ball created by the incoming sea-breeze which led to so much post-lunch excitement has dwindled away. In 2009 Hopkins Architects were asked by the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association to find a way to increase capacity, provide additional corporate box and air-conditioned accommodation, maintain roof shading and get that ’swing’ back. It was also important that the principles of Vaasthu, an Indian tradition, similar to feng shui, be adhered to in the design.

Chepauk Cricket Stadium - Hopkins Architects

The existing ground is situated in a tight urban site a couple of streets from the beachfront to the east. Our proposals create a series of twelve stands set on top of a continuous lower bowl of terracing. The sea-breeze is then able to flow through the horizontal gap between the lower terrace and the upper stands, through the vertical gaps between the stands and across the playing surface.

Chepauk Cricket Stadium - Hopkins Architects

Stands on the western edge of the site are reduced in scale, but follow a similar section, to allow greater air flow from the east. Day-time temperatures can reach 45°C in Chennai and so extensive translucent fabric roof structures provide shade over the stands. Sports and catering facilities such as badminton, squash and swimming pools for two social clubs at the ground, in addition to a cricket academy and car parking are also provided as part of the redevelopment.

Hopkins Practice Office - Hopkins Architects

On a triangular Marylebone site, enclosed by the backs of domestic buildings.  An office campus of two interlinked buildings, has been developed as congenial and cost effective workspace for up to 120 people, interspersed with sheltered outdoor areas, which add variety to the working environment.

Hopkins Practice Office - Hopkins Architects

They are constructed using the Patera building system, which was developed for a client by Hopkins Architects as standardised, single-storey buildings suitable for industrial or office use, which could be made as kits, delivered to the site in containers and erected quickly with minimal plant.

The original prototype building has a sophisticated tubular-steel lattice frame, placed outside the external envelope of the building.  The same insulated panels are used for the walls and roof of the external envelope. The gable ends are glazed. A later version has simpler columnar supports and sufficient head height to accommodate mezzanine floors within.

The campus has one of each building type, used as design studios by the different teams working on office projects.  A glass box, housing the entrance and reception, is sheltered by a tensile membrane canopy, which continues on to form a covered way linking the buildings.
