Cundall is delighted to announce that the Eton College Sports and Aquatic Centre has been recognised as UK Project of the Year in the Structural Engineering Awards (South Eastern Counties).

The project provided a 25m indoor swimming pool, a four court multi-purpose sports hall and associated spectator, changing and administration facilities. The pool incorporates a movable floor to increase flexibility, allowing the pool to be used for swimming, water polo and teaching. The multi-purpose sports hall is designed to facilitate examination use by the school.

Cundall has provided a full range of engineering disciplines resulting in a beautifully designed and engineered building using a wide pallet of materials. These have been skilfully integrated to link the outside gardens with the interior and allowing daylight to penetrate deep into the heart of the spaces.

Cundall Structures Partner, Barney Jordan said "This project came with a number of exacting challenges: from planning restrictions to difficult ground conditions. We are delighted that this beautiful building - where the engineering is almost invisibly integrated within the overall building aesthetics - has been recognised."
