The Daphne Steele Building at the University of Huddersfield is a forward-thinking development that champions both sustainability and wellbeing. It is currently targeting WELL Platinum certification, placing occupant health at the heart of its design.
Challenge
The University aimed to create a world-class facility that supports health, wellbeing, and sustainability while aligning with the broader campus vision. Meeting both BREEAM and WELL standards required close collaboration across disciplines, along with a clear focus on integrating environmental performance and human-centred design.
Outcome & Solution
We acted as the BREEAM Accredited Professional from project inception and also served as the WELL Accredited Professional on behalf of the University. Our team worked closely with CBRE, BAM, and other stakeholders to embed best practice into every stage of the process. The project is now on track to achieve WELL Platinum, reflecting a shared commitment to delivering a high-performance, health-focused space for students and staff.
