Ab Rogers Design harnesses colour for Royal Marsden Maggie's Centre
Ab Rogers Design has built a Maggie's Centre for the Royal Marsden cancer treatment hospital clad in glazed red terracotta and surrounded by a Piet Oudolf-designed garden.
The centre in Sutton, England, is formed of four inter-connected volumes with large glazed fronts.
Ab Rogers Design chose red to make the Royal Marsden centre cheerful, yet sensitive to the brick houses nearby. The terracotta was bent and extruded to form the exaggerated corrugated effect and painted in shades of glossy carmine and coral. Inside, the bright red continues with the staircases and kitchen island.
Stencilled illustrations of butterflies in terracotta by the designer Sara Fanelli decorate the facade, and her hand painted designs decorate the glass windows too.
