Biomolecular Sciences Building
Nottingham, UK
Benoy is delighted to have been involved in the two phases of the stunning Biomolecular research facility for the University of Nottingham.
The first phase of the new building opened to widespread acclaim in 2003 and occupies a key site on the edge of the Nottingham University Park Campus. The award-winning project provides laboratory and research space positioned over three floors.
Following the success of the first phase, Benoy was appointed to design the larger second building. This new phase was required to accommodate over 6,000m2 of additional research, office and the inclusion of a state-of-the-art 550 seat auditorium.
Designed to encourage social and academic interaction, it incorporated a large café and fully glazed wall which looks out onto the newly created landscaped courtyard.
