We believe that every project, no matter how big or small should be approached from the same perspective.
We challenge each brief to:
-
Minimise the impact on global environments
-
Enhance the community and the surrounding area
-
Create the most ideal spaces for the end user
This trifocal methodology has the potential to provide a catalyst for change that benefits all. We reject a one-size-fits-all approach in favour of allowing each project to grow into a bespoke design that works uniquely with the immediate community.

TEAMWORK
​
In our office, we envisage the work to build a building as teamwork, not only about Green Tea Architects but all the consultants involved. In order to achieve a "job well done" it is required a great client, a good builder and a great team of professionals - architect, structural engineer & mechanical engineer. All of them have to be working as a team with the same objectives and aims. We propose a clear & fluent communication with all the intervening parties.

TEXT
The project starts with the community!
​
Our team's prime focus when outlining the scheme was to continuously revert back to the community and the unique location of Benga. We offer our expertise as architects to assist in the blueprint of expanding a community alongside those who live here and those who have exposure in constructing with local and natural materials here in Benga.
​
The secondary school will assist in the growth of the Benga community alongside Benga Parish and the existing primary school.
​
We feel it is important for the new school to have a correlation with the existing school as well as a direct relationship to highlight the continuous progression of the children from primary school, followed by secondary school.
​
The idea focuses on a 'cluster' of buildings with the potential to expand as the community grows both mentally and physically. A line of trees act as a natural organic entrance into the school. Upon entry, you are met with a circular community space that we hope will be utilised as a place to congregate and be recognised as a key means of orientation, and potentially a pivotal point in how the community interact and grow.
​
The expansion of the 'cluster' is seen as the physical representation of the community growing.
