Race against time to save a futuristic 2004 school classroom
Briefly

The Ingenium Classroom Pod, designed in 2004 as part of a futuristic educational initiative, faces demolition unless relocated, showcasing its potential for innovative reuse.
The pod is described as a ‘B-movie alien spaceship’ or an ‘oversized iPod’, reflecting its avant-garde design inspired by modern architecture, specifically the Media Centre at Lord's Cricket Ground.
Though it has served as a classroom, the building now houses the WMF Ham Academy and faces decay. The school seeks alternatives to demolishing this unique architectural piece.
Oli Marshall from the Twentieth Century Society highlights various potential new uses for the pod, emphasizing its modular design allows it to be reinvented in different contexts.
