The scheme transforms the common room into a vibrant and flexible space for students to relax, socialise and study. Distinct activity zones help organise the layout, while new acoustic wall panels and ceiling baffles reduce noise and improve the overall environment.

Key changes include an upgraded servery counter and a redesigned queuing area to improve circulation. Bespoke new fixed furniture is paired with flexible loose furniture to keep the space adaptable throughout the day, while integrated planting troughs introduce greenery and a biophilic touch.

The result is a bright, dynamic environment that has been warmly received by both staff and students.
