Architecture

The building programme is arranged as a series of department “buildings” connected with a network of internal “streets” structured around the Library “Learning Resource Centre” heart and 3 courtyards of distinct character.
Department adjacencies have been carefully considered and the three courtyards provide clarity in their arrangement by clustering accommodation around “Academic”, “Exhibition” and “Business” courtyards. Bay windows in the master bedrooms add to the send of luxury, providing a bright and airy (yet private) location to relax & contemplate.
