Multi-Functional Spaces Manchester

Project Capella – University of Cambridge The building will provide state of the art laboratory accommodation together with lecture space, an exhibition area and a cafe which will open onto a landscaped courtyard. 330 Cycle parking spaces are to be provided in a timber framed shelter featuring a green roof. The design has evolved to create appropriate spaces for interaction and collaboration within the building combined with a welcoming approach to the building within an appealing landscape.

R100 Space Technology Centre – Part of Europe’s Largest Space Cluster The external appearance is influenced by the theme of outer space in its colour scheme and the materials used. A curved glazed elevation provides transparency and activity to the street. A series of time-line, glazed panels, monitors and digital wall within the circulation and collaborative space informs the public of the highly specialised activities within the building.

The GlaxoSmithKline Centre for Sustainable Chemistry The laboratory provides a focal point for forging strategic partnerships with other institutions and the UK pharmaceutical industry and creates a global hub to attract post-doctoral and visiting researchers wishing to develop expertise in sustainable chemistry, supporting both the university’s and GSK’s commitment to develop international talent.
