Bespoke design eco buildings to inspire “ The children find the external views and connection with the environment to be genuinely inspirational.” TG Escapes Ltd. started in 2003 with The Garden Escape - founded by Richard and Kath Harvey in partnership with Metropolis Architecture. Contemporary garden offices built from sustainable materials to encourage people to work from home. Because if more people worked from home, they would spend less time travelling to work, expend less energy and have a better quality of life. And the space you are in has a huge impact on how you work so a stylish building with large windows, sun pipes, and sedum roof could provide an inspiring space that was friendly to the environment. Realising that the same approach could provide unique learning environments for schools, encouraging environmental citizenship, The Learning Escape was born along with The Commercial Escape providing inspiring spaces for business. www.tgescapes.co.uk info@tgescapes.co.uk @learningescape
Flexible eco buildings designed for your space can grow as you do, with features like sun pipes, living sedum roofs, solar water systems as well as AA rated cooling & heating. Our bespoke designs connect the inside to out providing external views of nature. We use natural materials and ensure consistent working temperatures, optimum air quality, ventilation and acoustic comfort, and we maximise the available natural light. Our Learning Escapes can be seen in all educational settings from early years through to higher education used for classrooms, staff rooms, teacher training, nursery & early years, school halls, sports pavilions, SEN and disabilities, studios and two storey multi use provision. Two classroom buildings can be constructed in as little as six weeks onsite Our Commercial Escapes are used for offices, hospital relative rooms, VIP reception centres, kiosks, accommodation blocks and changing facilities. Our Garden Escapes are used for gyms, annexes, offices or just to relax in the garden in all weathers. Our modular approach minimises disruption on site and helps to maintain continuity of use throughout a project. It also saves time and money compared to a traditional build. “ “Both children and staff love learning and working in the building due to the amount of natural light and space. Free flow access to a covered deck is a huge advantage so that outdoor learning can take place in all weathers.” info@tgescapes.co.uk • 0800 917 7726 ”
