Per a statement from OMA, "The two departments are combined into a linear building situated at the edge of the playing field. Primary sporting spaces are on level with the field, and the sports hall opens directly onto it. The Sciences department spans over the sporting spaces like a 'skeletal' bridge. The façades are inspired in part by the regular rhythm of the terrace housing opposite the new building."

Further, "Inside, views from one department into the other make for lively and animated circulation throughout the new building, creating an unexpected interplay between Sport and Sciences."

While the private, co-ed boarding and day school in Brighton, England, has a historical quadrangle comprised of Grade II listed buildings designed by Sir Gilbert Scott and Sir Thomas Jackson in the 19th century, the new building is lcoated adjacent to the playing field lined with buildings from the 1970s and 1980s.
