Hendon

Project: HENDON CAMPUS, London Borough of Hendon
Master planning for a new postgraduate centre, Learning Resource Centre, Lecture Halls, phased programme of refurbishment and café/social students spaces
Location: Hendon, London NW4
Client: Middlesex University

The practice was commissioned to produce a masterplan for a five year Campus Strategy Plan for phased implementation to ensure minimum disruption to the campus, application for grant funding and cashflow requirements. Phase 1 of the project involved the construction of an independent lightweight extension over an existing building to provide new teaching space, and a new three storey office and administration block. These form a prestigious postgraduate facility for the Campus. Phase 2 of the project involved the infilling of a courtyard using a steel tree system to construct a covered plaza on two levels housing IT suites and a cafe to serve as a central meeting point for students. Other projects on the Campus involve the phased refurbishment of the Williams Building (office accommodation), sub division of main lecture halls and addition of passive ventilation. The masterplan included for a new 500 seat conference centre, new Learning Resources Centre and new IT suites, all of which have been successfully completed.

The practice were also commissioned for the production of masterplans for the Enfield and Cat Hill Campuses.
