College accommodation has moved on from the old-style student digs with modern high-spec, high-rise, purpose-built blocks, like this one in Bournemouth aptly named Skyline. With state-of-the-art amenities, break out areas, gym and specialist study rooms for sewing, media and textile students. We picked up and continued with the Skyline aviation design theme, with an ‘airmail’ styled internal post-room, and a ‘golden age of travel’ styled 45M garden mural, incorporating a mix of vintage travel images, typography and references to Bournemouth’s town and beach lifestyle. A final section of the garden artwork was saved to be finished live at the opening BBQ with representatives from the council, key suppliers, contractors and partners.
