Description
A suite of new buildings providing improved and expanded facilities for the Universities’ Student Services, Student Union, and Facilities Management departments.
The construction system uses an innovative form of insulated concrete formwork, which together with triple-glazed facades, and bespoke mechanical and environmental systems, are designed to target ‘Passivhaus’ environmental performance standards, producing a highly insulated and air-tight building envelope that minimises the buildings energy consumption and running costs in use. The project won the regional South West RIBA award in 2016.
