London-based practice MJP Architects completed this building for the University of Roehampton in West London. Providing rooms for just under 400 students or conference guests, the scheme also provides teaching accommodation, meeting rooms and a 120 seat seminar space, all benefitting from incredible views. The design respects and enhances the masterplan design objectives, providing clear circulation through beautiful landscaped gardens. The design shows the practice’s usual delight with detail and materials, with brick, pre-cast concrete and copper in use. The building incorporated prefabrication, a thermally massive envelope, CHP system, and an exposed concrete structure as part of its sustainability strategy.
