Priory Park in St. Neots, Cambridgeshire has become home to a new publicly-funded creative workspace building. The project is the home of Creative Exchange, a new set of shared workspaces aimed at nurturing local creative workers and innovators. It accommodates around 14 different companies in a studio - rather than office - environment. It has an adaptable ground floor space for exhibitions, training, meetings and events, with a shared studio space at first floor, and private workspaces on the two floors above. A ‘working garden’ on the roof offers further space for interaction, as well as dramatic views overlooking the park. The uncompromisingly contemporary building is thought of as being like a redefined English country house in the way it relates to the mature parkland around it. Built with an exposed concrete frame and upper two levels that cantilever out beyond the frame of the building, the building makes a bold and unusual addition to the local area.
