EDITORS COMMENTS
This elevation view of the Model Industrial School, designed by renowned architect Sampson Kempthorne, offers a glimpse into the architectural innovation and social reform of the 19th century. Dated 1838, this establishment was a pioneering response to the plight of pauper children, who were often forced to live in overcrowded and unsanitary workhouses. The Model Industrial School was intended to be a more humane alternative, providing a home and education for these children, while also instilling valuable skills for future employment. Kempthorne's design was based on the principles of efficiency, hygiene, and order, with separate dormitories, classrooms, and workshops arranged around a central quadrangle. The exterior of the school is characterized by its symmetrical façade, with tall, rectangular windows and a prominent central tower. The use of red brick and stone detailing adds to the building's imposing yet welcoming appearance. The school's design was influenced by the Quaker belief in the importance of hard work and self-improvement, and the elevation view reveals a well-planned and functional layout that reflects this philosophy. The Model Industrial School represented a significant step forward in the treatment of pauper children, and its influence can be seen in the development of later reform schools and orphanages. This image offers a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in social history, and serves as a reminder of the transformative power of architecture and design.
