Client: City University
New construction in two blocks to provide student accommodation for 250 students. The concept focused on the “flat let” approach, where 4 or 5 students shared their flats being provided with a communal kitchen/living space. Good natural daylight, high standard of insulation and careful detailing of the interior were keynotes.
