The approach to the campus masterplan was founded on a deep understanding of the history of Fettes College Edinburgh, its ethos and its transformational educational opportunities. Combined with a rich knowledge of the the local context in Guanddong, it's unique heritage and stunning landscapes, it has enabled the design team to create and inspirational campus for future generations.

The campus is formed of a diverse sequence of built environments that foster collective academic excellence yet also provide individual expression. The design of each building is unique and age appropriate.

The Middle School enjoys a large covered external hub for social learning, providing unique spaces for students to learn.

The Senior School acts as the focal point for the campus masterplan, sitting at the centre of the site. The building features a state-of-the-art learning hub that connects cross-curricular STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths) spaces. The architecture has a more formal feel with a contrasting strength of appearance and geometric rigour, representing a focus on study and preparation for Higher Education.

Modelled in the iconic 19th Century gothic revival style of the Scottish school, the design features colonnades of natural stone with bronze detailing.
