"  Not only is Central Saint Martins a place of history and talent, the buildings are characters in and of themselves. It is not a shiny, new campus with smart classrooms outfitted to accomodate the latest technology. Most days, it is a blessing if the heat is even working. Though, this has come up for much debate as the University of Arts London, the parent college of Saint Martins, is building a fancy new campus, and not everyone is supportive of this endeavor. Those against the new campus say the current campus, or rather, the buildings that comprise UAL (there is no campus right now) have history and feel the way are art school should. Art school is not meant to be shiny and new; it&amp;#039;s a place of experimentation and creativity. It is a studio where people can work, and that&amp;#039;s all it ever needs to be according to those opposed to the new campus. So before it is long gone and only a piece of Saint Martins history, here is the canteen, or cafeteria, where students go to grab some food at the Charing Cross Road building, the same building that houses the fashion department.  In the days of Jarvis Cocker, the canteen had to be shut down because of the drugs that were being done and dealt. Ah, art school.  \u2014Rebecca Suhrawardi Austin      Follow ELLE on Twitter.
