Designed by Associated Architects and constructed by Morgan Sindall, the building incorporates approaches and materials to make the building’s construction and operation as energy efficient and low carbon as possible. It includes air-source heat pump technologies, a rooftop solar power system, a biodiverse green roof, and LED lighting with smart controls.

We worked closely with the University, design team and contractor to deliver BREEAM ‘Excellent’ certification, both as the BREEAM Assessor and the BREEAM Accredited Professional.

The new building is part of the University's recently announced 2045 Campus Vision, which provides broad ideas for how the university’s estate can be developed over the next two decades and beyond. The vision enable the university to advance research, enhance education, strengthen its residential offer, and develop even more vibrant, accessible, inclusive and sustainable environments its communities.
