A comprehensive internal and external refurbishment of the postgraduate student accommodation block which was originally designed in 1962 by prominent architects Howell, Killick, Partridge and Amis (HKPA). Internally, the building was refurbished and flats rearranged to make a group fully accessible in a location adjacent to the new lift. Through the innovative use of prefabricated, insulated panels the new façade is attached to the original structure. This retains the unusual stepped floor and clerestory window arrangement while preserving the building’s unique character.
