Saint Martins emerges blinking in bright new home. But is it art?

Cross

local king away from "hell" in Soho, but some fear that students who have lost their charm

nervous, excited and, for once, forming an orderly queue, expect art students to register for the new year of teaching. A huge atrium rises above them, and beyond is a canyon of golden light, natural light or inside central hall "street" on the studies and ventilated glazing floating bridges. Everything is bright, clean and open -. This is certainly not the old Central St Martins

Of all the art schools in London, St. Martins has had the most bohemian reputation, until his old building closed this summer, the hottest local. While Goldsmiths could be famous for the cultivation of young British artists of the era of Damien Hirst, the former premises of St. Martins saw the Sex Pistols play and Jarvis Cocker to flirt with a girl who wanted to live like ordinary people.

course, has a noble heritage works of art as well. Lucian Freud, was briefly a student, but the rebellious young immigrant did not succeed in school. A plaster Venus adorning the new building and can be seen in the early twentieth century photographs on file must have been visible when the greatest British painter of the nude became his first lessons in Soho, drinking in the neighborhood of the former University ladle.

Everybody in scouts (fashion industry Alexander McQueen was a former student) for tourists fascinated by the exotic herd young permanent outside their doors on Charing Cross Road knew it was a institution of character. Behind those doors lay a maze of some other studies bitter loved and hated, but the university believes it was the end of his life. "It was hell," says Mick Finch, a senior teacher.

have now ascended to heaven. The new Central Saint Martins replaces not one but two large buildings on Southampton Row Holborn, Soho and the Labyrinth, and will welcome 600 undergraduate students. It was carved out of a warehouse complex near Kings Cross station, or rather, cleverly inserted:. An agreement blank glass cubes and invade the brick industrial structure

The new Saint Martins is a spectacular building that surrounds the heart single, large space with natural light. The stairs going up from here also lead to well-lit work areas with movable wooden walls, where students share "support bases" from which you can book any of an impressive theater suite Mounting 16mm film.

an art school is a fascinating architectural challenge. How can we provide flexible workspaces that students need, without creating a large art factory? The school of Britain finest art is also one of our great buildings: Charles Rennie Mackintosh of Glasgow School of Art in Use generous and creative openness and natural light, architect Paul Williams from Construction of some brightness Glasgow School. It also emulates its authority. The views invite contemplation and admiration in one.

suspect these memories fade between facilities in the state of the art and epic views, internal and external, that I, for one, want to take a sketchbook . There are some buildings less charismatic and antiseptics between studies of art schools in London, but this is not one of them. He has a great sense of occasion of the architecture, and surely that is good for learning, feeling a drama in their environment.

And, as Professor Jane Rapley, director of the university, said: "I am sure we will turn this into a labyrinth in the next 25 years."
