Community School of Auchterarder - Phase 4: The Square
” Artists were involved with the design of the school from an early stage, resulting in an unusual and stimuating school environment – artworks are integral to the structure rather than applied as an after-thought”.
(Scottish Executive (2003) School Design. p33)The Square is a key public space situated between the new secondary school building and the community building. Artist Gordon Young collaborated with landscape architect Sally Rickett to create a walkway and seating inspired by the geographic location of the school.

Community School of Auchterarder - Phase 2: Primary Playground
The design of the this playground for the new Auchterarder Community School was the second of four development phases where artists were integrated into the design and realisation of a new school. In this second phase artist Susie Hunter worked closely with pupils to develop ideas for the layout and content of one of the primary playgrounds. The space was designed to stimulate free play rather than prescriptive activities and is a combination of sculpture, landscaping and imagination.

Community School of Auchterarder - Phase 5: Nursery & Primary Playgrounds
In Auchterarder, the public art agency PACE has coordinated the collaboration between four artists, architects and local authority in the design and rebuilding of a community nursery, primary and secondary school. Each artist has concentrated on a different aspect of the school building and exterior impacting upon the design and aesthetics of the playground, flooring, walkways and walls.
This particular phase of the overall project focuses on the work of Susie Hunter in the design and content of the outside play areas for pupils of the primary and nursery schools; and the environmental graphic signage of Lucy Richards.See also:
