Keystone Academy Beijing, Lecture Theatres

Keystone Academy is a Chinese private school based in Beijing which has been in operation since 2014.This school is founded on three keystones: bilingual immersion in Chinese and English; building character and community throughout our residential setting; and promoting Chinese culture and identity in a world context.

Our lecture theatre design on this project needed to reflect this cultural context.

When the two lecture theatres first came into use they were very much “bare bones”.

Aims included increasing capacity from 198 to 250 adults through the use of specially designed lecture theatre furniture, with an additional 60 standing spaces, improving the lighting with better ambience and a variety of moods, acoustics, technology (AV projection and audio equipment), air handling and, above all, improving the sight lines.

Our lecture theatre design was to address and correct all of these elements.
