Cranbrook Education Campus Enhances Dining Area with Modern Canopy

Cranbrook Education Campus set out to enhance its outdoor provision with a high-quality canopy that would not only support flexible dining and social use, but also complement the campus’s modern architectural style for years to come.

Working with South West Norse as architect and project manager, the brief was for a canopy solution that would look visually impressive while offering long-term durability.

Equally important was partnering with a reputable, trustworthy supplier with a proven track record in the education sector, which led to Kensington Systems being selected for the project.

Kensington Systems supplied and installed a Spaceshade canopy designed to integrate seamlessly with the contemporary character of the building. The clean, modern structure features a dark grey finish that aligns with the existing window frames and overall façade, creating a cohesive and considered visual outcome.

With over 45 years of experience and hundreds of canopy installations completed in schools across the UK, Kensington was able to provide a solution that balances aesthetic appeal with robust, long-lasting performance, giving the client confidence in both design and longevity. 

In addition to the canopy installation, Kensington Systems delivered a complete package of works, including all necessary groundworks and full site reinstatement. This turnkey approach ensured efficient project delivery and a consistently high standard of finish throughout.

The project was handed over snag-free and ready for immediate use, providing Cranbrook Education Campus with a durable, attractive outdoor space that supports everyday student life while reflecting the school’s commitment to quality and future-focused design.
