Napper Architects shared their design for the Sunbeams Music Center, a project for a charity based in England that works with handicapped people of all ages. The project will be the first of its kind as it will offer a new music therapy center that is closely linked with its surroundings. The Sunbeams Music Trust, a charity started almost 15 years ago by local resident Annie Mawson, “uses music in a therapeutic way to encourage communication and social inclusion, build up self-esteem, and self-confidence, and improve quality of life, making a real difference in people’s lives.” The small charity has now grown to become one of the leading Arts In Health organizations in the United Kingdom. “We are thrilled Eden District Council has recognized that the Sunbeams Music Center will be an architecturally unique and inspirational building. Not only can Sunbeams transform the way they help people, the center is designed to enhance and work with the surrounding landscape,” explained Ms. Mawson.
