Our `Big Idea` is to create a visually exciting new building that will sit in its own landscaped area surrounded by areas for formal and informal activities. It will enhance its setting on the edge of Barnard Castle and close to an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty within the deep rural area of Teesdale. It will be a low impact building that embodies and demonstrates sustainable construction and sustainability to its users and to those who just view it passing by. It will incorporate renewable energy technologies and have high energy efficiency and low maintenance costs whilst providing for the expressed social, cultural and physical needs of young people throughout Teesdale. The design will create a sense of exhilaration and challenge and will exemplify the principles and philosophy which Teesdale Community Resources (TCR) encourages – participation, responsibility, challenge, growth, respect for others and the environment and active participation.
