Iona Village Hall, Scotland
Iona Village Hall is the result of a decade of hard work by the people of Iona to realise a building that will keep a village hall at the heart of community life on the island. WT Architecture and the design team have worked alongside the community since 2012 to deliver a building that can fulfil the functions of gathering space, learning facilities, school PE space, ceilidh hall, theatre, playgroup, music venue and wedding venue amongst others.
The new Village Hall replaces a much-loved but deteriorating single space Hall built by islanders in 1928. The Hall now provides a flexible layout including a main hall space two meeting rooms, a kitchen, bar area and ‘gathering space’ intended to be used as the islands communal living room.
In winter there are no other public spaces for the community to come together in so it was important that the Hall offer opportunities for both formal and informal social space and feel welcoming to those dropping in for contact, support and community on an island where social isolation, particularly for the elderly and young parents can be acute.
