The Arcadia Group and London College of Fashion have worked together to produce an innovative and new learning experience for the next generation of future leaders in the fashion business. The Fashion Retail Academy aims to introduce students to all of the practical and vocational skills needed for the challenging and fast paced world of fashion retail.

The Fashion Retail Academy is located at 15 Gresse Street which is close to Oxford Street in the heart of London’s fashion retail district.  The building has recently been refurbished and fitted out with state of the art teaching and learning facilities.

Lucking & Clark were responsible for design of major temporary works required to enable structural alterations to be carried out including forming of a new atrium and lecture theatre. We also carried out design and detailing of architectural steel and glass structures including stairs, balustrades and the entrance canopy.
