Friday 13 February 2026 A Hall for All technical briefings The technical design stage for the Hall for All project has involved developing the detail of the designs that have been agreed and approved by Camden planners so that the work can be tendered to a building contract. Reed Watts Architects led a series of briefings to re-familiarise staff, students, members of the Trust and the PTA and other project partners with the designs. The briefings have provided opportunities to raise any questions about the proposals, or to identify anything that may have been missed. Following the overview sessions, further meetings have taken place on particular aspects to finalise the technical design. These have been more focused alongside other members of the design team such as acousticians, service engineers and theatre consultants.
