2. THE ALAN TURING BUILDING, MANCHESTER

3. PRIVATE HOUSE, WEST SUSSEX

4. THE LIGHTHOUSE, BRE WATFORD

Sustainable innovation has been a founding principle of the

practice and is fully integrated into our design and business

processes. From designing the first zero carbon home to

delivering the greenest office building in the Middle East,

our track record of improving the efficiency of buildings

and spaces is significant and far-reaching.

Our approach to design is driven by the fundamental belief

that sustainability should not compromise function or

beauty. Good design should be informed by an ambition

to improve efficiency and reduce the building’s carbon

footprint and consequently the impact on climate change.

No building, space or place can be considered well

designed if it does not positively contribute to

environmental, social and economic sustainability.

Our design process is robust but flexible to allow a bespoke

response to a client brief and context. Our experience and

belief in the value of sustainable design enable an intuitive

response, which is supported by a rigorous process that

harnesses the benefits of BIM and performance analysis.

PROCESS

Every project at Sheppard Robson is subjected to a series

of design reviews at key stages of its design development.

Objective criteria such as environmental sustainability are

reviewed alongside subjective issues such as compositional

aesthetic resolution. Peer group and design team

consensus provides direction and ensures design quality

is achieved. The design review process is an integral

part of our quality assurance and is linked to our

ISO 9001 accreditation.

UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER

MANCHESTER, UK

16,700m2

£43m

2007

The pioneering design of The Alan Turing Building represents the aspirations of

the University of Manchester as one of the world’s leading research institutions.

Housing the Departments of Mathematics, Photon Science and Astronomy, the

building is formed of three blocks or ‘sl iding fingers’ which protrude and recede,

creating a dynamism further enlivened by cantilevered projections. Each level of

accommodation is expressed as a zinc-clad ingot with flush, horizontal slot glazing,

while extensive glazing at ground level has created active frontages. An over-sail ing

roof structure unifies the three blocks and supports a photovoltaic array which

provides 40,900kWhr per annum, translating into a potential saving of 17,000kg of

carbon dioxide each year. The atrium linking two of the blocks houses lecture

rooms and social spaces at ground level.

2017

The project – situated within the Westminster Conservation Area – creates a bold

design addition to the rooftop of this prominent London building. The dramatic

pavil ion-like structure, made up of a series of geometric-folded forms, will provide

around 800m2 of high-quality office and reception space. The extension will rest

on the building’s existing mansard roof and the structure will be clad in zinc with

carefully positioned glazing to frame views towards Southbank and the City, whilst

also controll ing solar gain. The design has been carefully considered so the new

roof responds to the classical composition of the buildings main elevation.

2016

Arcadia’s vision was to fully transform a tired 1980s office building into a fun,

connected and inspiring workplace, which supported their brands.

The project required a total transformation and refurbishment of the existing office

accommodation located directly above the busy Oxford Street Plaza shopping

centre. Consequently, ID:SR and the design team were appointed in June 2012 for

the refurbishment and fit-out of Arcadia’s existing Headquarters at Colgrave House.

Following extensive stakeholder briefing and user engagement, the workplace

strategy and building concept were defined to create a modern and efficient

workplace, reflecting Arcadia’s culture whilst facil itating the diversity and creativity

of the fashion brands. The environment is intended to act as a catalyst to attract

and retain talent whilst enabling flexibil ity for growth and ongoing evolution in

the fast paced fashion and retail industry.

2010

Marking the start of the pedestrian journey through the new Spinningfields quarter,

the award- winning 1 The Avenue is pivotal in form and location, tying Manchester ’s

retail and business district with its civic core. The building was designed in

response to its urban context and as a flagship mixed-use building. Armani occupies

the ground and first floors, with a nightclub in the basement and boutique offices

and a roof terrace above. The scissor geometry of the building’s form responds to a

duality of desire l ines and is immediately apparent in the dramatic cantilever on to

Deansgate. The angled upper storeys realign the east-west axis towards Hardman

Square at the heart of Spinningfields, and the lower levels direct pedestrians

towards the new entrance to the John Rylands Library. 1 The Avenue received

a BREEAM Excellent rating and the building's regulated energy consumption

is just 78kWhr/m²/yr.

At 140 hectares, Barking Riverside is one of the UK’s largest residential

regeneration schemes. Sheppard Robson has designed the 45-hectare phase

one masterplan which will deliver the first 1 ,400 of a total 10,800 homes.

Neighbourhoods will vary in character and density and all homes will be designed

to surpass current standards. The energy-efficient houses in Buzzards Mouth Courts

will range from traditionally laid out terraces to innovative, l inear houses wrapping

around a central garden. Some houses will have back gardens that lead directly into

shared courtyards, while others will open onto welcoming home-zone streets with

pedestrian priority. Frontages have been designed to create natural surveil lance,

and openings between blocks will allow access from different sides, encouraging

the local community to use the courtyards and play areas.

THE BARONY CAMPUS


EAST AYRSHIRE COUNCIL

CUMNOCK, EAST AYRSHIRE, UK

23,000m2

£68m

2020

Sheppard Robson’s 23,000m² Barony Campus in East Ayrshire will house 2,500

students and 300 staff. The student facil ities include a secondary school (for

1 ,633 pupils), a primary school (517 pupils), a nursery (240 children), an 80-place

supported learning centre and 30 additional places for students with special

educational requirements.

The building has been conceived and organised as four l inked structures, with three

school pavil ions and sports centre. Set on a radial geometry, the design approach

helps to break down the overall mass of the building —which is formed of 2 two-

storey and 2 three-storey structures—minimising the visual impact of the facil ity

and giving each element of the school its own identity. Positioned within a parkland

setting, the running track has been retained on site and upgraded and public access

has been maintained around the site and along the riverside.

BARTS SQUARE


HELICAL

LONDON EC1, UK

66,000m2

£210m

2019

Barts Square presents a rare opportunity to create a sustainable, truly mixed-use

development in the City of London. The development will provide 216 apartments

alongside 34,000m2 office and retail space. The site is one of the most significant in

the City in terms of the quality and character of the architecture in the immediate

vicinity, including the Grade I l isted mediaeval church of St Bartholomew the Great

and its cloisters, and the Grade II* l isted St Bartholomew’s Hospital, the oldest

hospital in London, designed by James Gibbs in the mid-18th Century. The design

for the development enhances these qualities through a sensitive yet contemporary

reinterpretation of the existing fabric, seamlessly knitting-in where required, and

creating new architectural statements where appropriate. The public realm will be

reanimated and transformed into a use-able, permeable and

highly legible environment.

BBC NORTH


BBC

MEDIACITYUK, SALFORD, UK

31,500m2

2011

The design of the BBC's new home in the North started with ID:SR and a BBC

working group thinking about how they could create a workplace that’s a thriving

urban neighbourhood. As the BBC began to plan the move of 2,300 posts to their

new centre at MediaCityUK in Salford they commissioned ID:SR to design a home

for the corporation that would reflect the incredible creativity of its people and the

content they create. Applying their activity-driven design approach, ID:SR worked

with the BBC to create a design solution that would allow them to work more

effectively and creatively in less, more efficient space. BBC North offers a variety

of work settings which properly reflect how each of its departments really works.

By reimagining the office as a city, ID:SR has devised a new workplace which is

amenity-centric rather than desk-centric, and which is enlivened by the way

people share its spaces and amenities.

PHASED FROM 2014

As masterplanner and architect, Sheppard Robson led the design of Manchester

Metropolitan University’s new Birley Fields campus. The campus will provide teaching,

office and research facil ities alongside student accommodation, an energy centre

and 42,000m² of new public realm. Its focal point will be the new academic building

for the Faculty of Health, Psychology & Social Care and the Institute of Education,

providing 6,500 students, researchers and lecturers with a modern teaching and

learning environment. The key design themes for the building are openness, informality

and the dissolving of barriers between the community and higher education. It will be

clad in a veil of glazed white ceramic and fritted glass panels which change in density

across the facade and lift to reveal the community-accessible spaces on the ground

floor. Birley Fields is located on a prominent gateway to Manchester and will become a

beacon for the promotion of higher education in the city.

BRISTOL, UK

13,000m2

£37m

2014

The architectural ambition of the project is to create a building that respects the

neighbouring listed buildings and surrounding conservation area whilst also adding

a confident piece of contemporary design to Bristol.

To achieve this, the building is arranged in two parallel wings, with the east-facing element

housing the office accommodation and responding to the proportion and massing of the

adjacent l isted buildings. Distinctly different in form, the west-facing wing is designed as

an undulating aluminium wall, signifying the cutting-edge laboratory space housed in that

part of the building. The two elements of the building are l inked by a full height atrium

space, which forms the social heart of the building.

£40m

2017

Sheppard Robson's £40m housing scheme on Camden Road for client Barratt London

will include over 160 new homes—fifty percent of which will be affordable housing—

and create a major new architectural addition to this prominent London junction.

Situated on the corner of St Pancras Way and Camden Road, the seven-storey brick

building will be animated by the two top levels being clad in corten steel. The change

in form and materials will decrease the massing of the block whilst also creating an

interesting skyline for the project. The design of the upper levels allows for the inclusion

of large communal landscaped rooftop terraces. The housing is organised around two

courtyards—designed to be calm, tranquil spaces in this prominent urban setting—that

provide an alternative access point to the generous reception space on St Pancras Way.

CAMDEN TOWN MASTERPLAN

CLIENTLOCATION

CAMDEN TOWN UNLIMITED

LONDON NW1, UK

Camden Town Unlimited (CTU) is the Business Improvement District (BID) for

Camden Town. Responding to a 20% reduction in footfall in Camden’s Central

Business District in recent years, CTU appointed Sheppard Robson to undertake

a Masterplan for the High Street between Chalk Farm and Euston Station to

rejuvenate the area’s cultural and commercial offer.

Camden High Street has a surprising mixture of businesses, with the vast majority

of these being offices rather than the retail and leisure businesses frequently

associated with the area. Local businesses are keen to see more affordable

housing in the area, ensuring that there is the opportunity for employees to l ive

closer to their work and at the same time participate in the broader community.

CHANNEL 4


CHANNEL 4

LONDON SW1, UK

12,400m2

2014

ID:SR’s multi-phased refurbishment of Channel 4’s iconic headquarters has

succeeded in creating a socially vibrant, collaborative workplace for Channel

4 employees, in keeping with the culture of an organisation that resists the

constraints of corporate culture. In addition to improving the working environment

and future proofing the building infrastructure, the building’s occupancy has been

increased by over 50%, consolidating Channel 4 staff into the headquarters.

The headquarters is an award-winning Richard Rogers building and so ID:SR’s

design also needed to be sympathetic to its original concept and aesthetic.

Undertaken in 36 phases, it is no mean feat that the project has been delivered

step-by-step during full occupation while maintaining business continuity.

LONDON SE1, UK

12,800m2

£26m

2016

This is Sheppard Robson's first project for international hotel operator citizenM who

are roll ing out a new chain in the UK offering affordable luxury. The nine-storey,

370-key hotel will stand directly across from the World Heritage Tower of London

and adjacent to the remains of the Roman city wall . The design is contemporary, but

careful modulation of the building’s elevation has ensured that it responds to its

sensitive historic setting. A café, bar, restaurant and meeting spaces are included in

the scheme and a landscaped café terrace will overlook the Roman ruins. Innovative

design solutions will reduce carbon emissions using renewable energy technologies

and new construction techniques. The bedrooms will be prefabricated and will

arrive fully functional to site. citizenM Tower of London is expected to achieve

an EPC rating of A+ and a BREEAM Excellent rating with aspirations to achieve

Outstanding. Concrete are the chain's interior/brand designers.

CITYLABS


BRUNTWOOD

MANCHESTER, UK

11,100m2

£17.7m

2014

Citylabs in Manchester is a joint development between Bruntwood, a commercial

property company and Manchester Science Parks. It is a new concept in high-

specification flexible office and laboratory space that is, set right in the heart of

Corridor Manchester, the city’s knowledge quarter, providing 11,100m2 of bespoke-

built biomedical facil ities.

Sheppard Robson was commissioned to design both the building and anchor

tenant’s fit-out. The project consists of a Grade II l isted building (the former Royal

Eye Hospital) and a new extension block. Due to the l isting, the local planners were

very sensitive to any new additions so the new design needed to be sympathetic to

their concerns as well as providing maximum commercial value for our client.

BIRMINGHAM, UK

6,700m2

£45m

2018

Sheppard Robson led the design of a unique and exceptional facil ity, the

Collaborative Teaching Laboratory (CTL). A hub for science and engineering

teaching, the CTL features multi-functional labs suitable for subject-specific

and cross-disciplinary teaching and team working.

Phase 1 saw a state-of-the-art engineering lab created within the existing

mechanical engineering building. This was followed by phase 2, a brand new

building in between biosciences and the learning centre on the university’s

Edgbaston campus. This includes a wet lab, dry lab and e-lab, as well as an

outreach space known as the Discovery Lab.

DELOITTE HQ, 1 NEW STREET SQUARE


DELOITTE

LONDON, UK

36,000m2

2018

Deloitte’s addition to its London campus embraces agile working and an intell igent

building system to drive efficiencies and set new standards for wellness and

sustainability. This approach resulted in 1 New Street Square becoming the largest

WELL Gold, New and Existing Interiors project worldwide, and the first to achieve

both BREEAM Outstanding and WELL Gold. The project—which creates a rich

mix of work settings and amenities—also centralises the business’s client spaces,

welcoming them into the campus and introducing new ways of working alongside

the Deloitte team.

The interior strategy defines neighbourhoods, routes and layers of privacy

throughout the spaces, as one would when planning a city. People’s first impression

of this ‘masterplan’ starts at reception, where a l ight-fi l led, double-height space

with warm timber-clad surfaces sets the scene for the whole building.

UNIVERSITY OF LIVERPOOL

LIVERPOOL, UK

16,600m2

£20m

2009

The Active Learning Lab is the centrepiece of the University of Liverpool

Engineering Department’s redevelopment and has become a colourful addition

to the Liverpool skyline, enhancing the Department’s presence across the city.

The Lab’s innovative cantilevered, glass-clad structure appears to float over a

retained, brutalist podium building. By day the outer skin of reflective and fritted

glass panels is transparent, but at night it glows with an endless range of colours,

morphing designs and patterns. The Lab contains two large, flexible spaces allowing

full-size models to be exhibited and tested. The redevelopment included the

refurbishment of all four of the Department’s buildings. A new three-storey glazed

‘street’ now links the buildings, giving full accessibil ity to all levels and providing

a social and breakout area alongside the enhanced teaching and research facil ities.

FITZROY PLACE


EXEMPLAR

LONDON W1, UK

84,500m2

£210m

2015

Fitzroy Place is one of the most high profile mixed-use developments in Central London.

Located on a unique three-acre site in the heart of Fitzrovia, the 84,500m² development

includes 237 private and 54 affordable apartments, two office buildings, retail and restaurant

space and public realm. Responsive to the distinctive character of Fitzrovia and comprising

five unique buildings, Fitzroy Place welcomes a desirable environment for both l iving and

working. The public courtyard at the heart of the scheme offers an oasis of calm within the

dense urban fabric of the surrounding neighbourhood and showcases the heritage asset of

the Grade II l isted chapel of the former Middlesex Hospital. Sheppard Robson designed the

masterplan for Fitzroy Place and collaborated with Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands on the

detailed design to create an architectural richness which promotes a sense of identity and

ownership for tenants and residents.

FITZROY STREET


ARUP / DERWENT LONDON

LONDON W1, UK

16,400m2

£41.3m

2009

8 Fitzroy Street completes the redevelopment of Arup’s headquarters in central London. The

patterned facade, derived from the motif of a helical DNA strand, dissolves the building’s

mass and creates visual interest across the long street elevations. This patterning also

enabled 50% of the facade to be insulated, fundamental for the use of active chil led beams

instead of a conventional fan pipe air conditioning system. This has contributed to regulated

energy consumption of just 106kWhr/m²/yr. Inside the building the DNA motif is picked

up in a feature glass wall by the artist Alex Beleschenko, rising to the full height of the

central open atrium. A retractable fire curtain at alternate floor levels was commissioned to

accommodate a full-height open atrium creating visual connectivity between each floor and

harnessing a sense of collaboration. Daylight floods through the five storeys of the building

across offices, meeting rooms, a café, a l ibrary and conference and exhibition space.

GREENBANK RESIDENTIAL



LIVERPOOL, UK

16,400m2

2018

The complex package of redevelopment sees six buildings (Derby House, Rathbone Hall ,

Rathbone House, Warden’s House, Warden’s Court and Roscoe and Gladstone Halls)

replaced by three new student accommodation blocks. They are Derby Hall , Rathbone Hall

and Gladstone Hall , which all take advantage of their unique setting and open up key sight

l ines and accessibil ity across the site.

The new build student accommodation creates 1,370 ensuite bedrooms in total, increasing

the number of rooms by 40%. The redevelopment is part of a £250m masterplan by the

University to build and upgrade accommodation at its city and Mossley Hill base.

The materials, scale and massing of the design have been developed to reflect the

character of the conservation area and respect the distinctive mature landscape

of the Greenbank site.

LONDON W6, UK

24,000m2

£90m

2019

Sheppard Robson’s new £90m building at 245 Hammersmith Road (formerly Bechtel House)

creates a prominent architectural addition and sequence of new public spaces in the area’s

Business Improvement District (BID). Working for the client Legal & General, the scheme

will provide 22,500m2 of flexible office space and 1,765m2 of retail space. Rather than being

a single structure l ike the existing Bechtel House on the site, Sheppard Robson’s design

reduces the mass of the development by forming the building from two parallel wings that

are connected by a central core. The reconfiguration of the development’s plan allows the

new design to be stepped back from Hammersmith Road, creating the opportunity for a

new landscaped space at the front of the development that will be an inviting entrance to

the project. This newly recreated plaza will lead through to a landscaped podium garden,

with a funicular l ift mediating the 8m change of level between the two external spaces.

2018

Sheppard Robson’s timber-framed, 1 ,150m² pavil ion building sits in a new landscaped public

space in Hardman Square as part of the Manchester ’s major Spinningfields development.

For client All ied London, the four-storey retail pavil ion has been designed to be a permanent

venue for a high-end food and drink offering, whilst the public realm proposal—also designed

by Sheppard Robson—creates a complementary garden space, called The Field.

The strongly gridded form of the building’s expressed frame firmly anchors the new building

in its context of commercial offices, whilst the structure’s darkened timber (used to mitigate

the appearance of natural weathering) creates a relationship between the building and the

landscaping it is embedded within.

HERIOT-WATT UNIVERSITY GRID


HERIOT-WATT UNIVERSITY, UK

EDINBURGH, UK

5,200m2

£19m

2019

The 5,200m2 teaching and learning facil ity has been designed to promote collaboration

between departments, with an emphasis on ‘Learning Through Making’ in subjects such as

Engineering and Computer Science. The development also incorporates a Business Enterprise

Zone, which acts as an incubator space for young businesses, forging links with the Heriot-

Watt University Research Park.

The design has been shaped to make the most of its green, parkland setting next to the loch

at the centre of the campus. The building consists of two teaching blocks that are arranged

either side of an atrium. The southern block curves to address the water whilst also enlarging

the central atrium and the northern block is regular shape and sits directly behind this.

16,000m2

£64m

2019

Sheppard Robson won a design competition in 2005 for a new 16,000m² civic

centre for the London Borough of Hounslow. Developed by Linkcity, the new facil ity

creates a distinctive architectural form that gives the new building a strong civic

presence within the community, with the design promoting a feeling of openness

and creating connections between the public and private functions of the building.

The external elevations help create a civic building that commands a presence

within the community and addresses the adjacent high street. The facades are

informed by a singular design approach, creating a consistent architectural

language to all elevations.

£47m

2018

The 12,000m² highly sustainable design, which is targeting achieving BREEAM

Excellent, is located next to Birmingham International Airport and Birmingham

International Railway Station and is a key element of ‘UK Central’ , the region’s

regeneration strategy, which will benefit from being connected to high speed

railway network HS2.

The exterior of Sheppard Robson’s design is characterised by the building’s

stepped structure, creating a strong form that translates into a varied range of

internal spaces designed by Sheppard Robson’s interior design group, ID:SR.

The palette of external materials includes concrete soffits with horizontal

bands of anodised aluminium.

2011

Sheppard Robson has been involved with the redevelopment of Imperial College’s research

facil ities at the Hammersmith Hospital in west London for the past ten years. The Imperial

Centre for Translational and Experimental Medicine (ICTEM) is the second major new building

to be completed alongside a series of refurbishment projects. The Centre combines laboratory

space for up to 450 scientists with a dedicated facil ity for evaluating and developing new

medical treatments through clinical trials. It was built with support from the British Heart

Foundation, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, the Medical Research Council and the

Wellcome Trust. Laboratories and office/write-up spaces are set either side of an atrium

running north/south which contains meeting pods and brings l ight into the heart of the

building. The atrium has been designed to l ink with the next phase of development to the

south, providing a strong axis which links to existing campus buildings.

£10m

2010

In 2011 the Lancaster Institute for the Contemporary Arts (LICA) became the first higher

education building and only the second building ever to receive a BREEAM Outstanding

rating post-completion. The Institute houses a range of flexible performance and workshop

spaces that support an exciting programme of music, drama, design and fine art. The design

was developed as an exploration of the interplay between nature and the manmade, inspired

by the woodland setting. Daylight floods the teaching and research areas and light timber

finishes lend both brightness and texture to the interiors. A highly innovative, prefabricated

cross-laminated timber structure provides high levels of airtightness and also enabled a quick

and safe construction programme. Other sustainable features include photovoltaics, a heat

recovery system, natural ventilation and rainwater recycling. Embodying design quality and

creativity, LICA is a fitting showcase for the Institute’s creative activities.

£240,000

2007

The Lighthouse is the UK’s first net zero-carbon house to meet Level 6 (the

highest level) of the Code for Sustainable Homes. The heart of the concept for this

prototype home is the ambition to create homes where innovative environmental

design and construction methods do not compromise the quality of the occupants’

l ife, but add to it, creating adaptable, flexible spaces designed for sustainable

modern living. The highly efficient building envelope was constructed using

THE NEW SCIENCE BUILDING,UNIVERSITY OF HERTFORDSHIRE


UNIVERSITY OF HERTFORDSHIRE

HATFIELD, UK

9,000m2

£30m

2016

The 9,000m2 Sheppard Robson-designed New Science Building occupies a

prominent site at the heart of the University of Hertfordshire’s College Lane

Campus, Hatfield. A major element of the university’s 2020 Vision, the building has

been designed as a simple orthogonal structure that is derived from the cellular

grid of the flexible laboratory spaces within.

A distinctive cladding system animates the building, whilst also helping the

structure achieve BREEAM Excellent. Fins—made from expanded aluminium mesh—

wrap around the five-storey building and act as a veil , unifying the architectural

form of the structure. The regular, vertical elements allow the internal spaces to

be easily and flexibly reconfigured, whilst also covering the extensive plant on the

upper floor, which is required for creating the carefully controlled internal spaces.

JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA

29,800m2

£38m

2016

The Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital will be one of only four dedicated children’s hospitals

on the African continent and will create a much needed facil ity for children from South Africa

and the Greater Southern Africa Development Community. The hospital will operate as an

academic tertiary care referral facil ity, providing services in speciality care areas such as

cardiothoracic, neuroscience, nephrology, endocrine, reconstructive and general paediatric

surgery. It is planned as a 200-bed facil ity with capacity to grow to 300 beds, and will include

a relatively high ratio of intensive/critical care beds along with a significant quantity of family

accommodation for those accompanying sick relatives. At the centre of the design is a secret

garden, a visual and spiritual heart for the hospital, around which all activity will be based.

The shallow floor plans will allow for much of the building to be naturally l it and ventilated.

NOTRE DAME CATHOLIC COLLEGE


LIVERPOOL CITY COUNCIL

LIVERPOOL, UK

10,500m2

2013

Notre Dame Catholic College in Everton is the first completed project of Liverpool City Council ’s

Liverpool Schools Investment Programme. Phase One alone will see eight schools in the city

benefitting, of which three (Notre Dame and Archbishop Beck Catholic Sports College and

Archbishop Blanch School) are being delivered by Sheppard Robson.

The design was developed from the City Council ’s ‘Liverpool Schools Concept’ where a simply

constructed large ‘shell ’ space is provided efficiently at minimal cost, allowing independent design

of the building interior to respond to the schools specific needs - and allow flexible re-organisation

throughout the building’s l ife. The over-arching aim is to improve education, boost the local

economy and build stronger local communities. Planning approval was secured on this site close

to the city centre early in 2012, construction began in August 2012 and the students arrived in

September 2013 - the same date that would have been achieved by the cancelled BSF programme.

PROJECT ESTIDAMA

CLIENTLOCATIONAREA

CONFIDENTIAL

ABU DHABI, UAE

33,800m2

Project Estidama is a highly sustainable 30-storey tower, designed specifically for the Middle Eastern

context. Initial design analysis shows a 40% reduction in carbon emissions compared to standard office/

mixed-use towers in the region. The regulated energy consumption will be just 90kWhr/m²/yr. The building

form was designed using complex parametric algorithms, combining climate analysis with Grasshopper

modelling. A double helix spirals asymmetrically around the central core and creates a self-shading

building form with equal floorplate areas, suited to office, hotel or residential use. The upper surfaces of

the spiral are further optimised for intense solar impact and are laced with photovoltaics. Incorporating an

active double-skin facade, a delicate geometric fi l igree forms a structural diagrid and provides additional

shading to the internal spaces, while reflecting daylight onto the office floor.

THE SAMMY OFER CENTRE


LONDON BUSINESS SCHOOL

LONDON NW1, UK

30,000m2

£69m

2017

Sheppard Robson was commissioned by London Business School to create a state-of-the-

art teaching centre in the Grade II l isted Old Marylebone Town Hall and Library Annexe.

The design includes the insertion of a glazed entrance foyer l inking the two buildings, and

a new lecture theatre block. The period buildings will be completely refurbished, retaining

the ceremonial rooms in the Council House for use by Westminster Registrar ’s Office.

The glazed link will have a distinctive impact on the Marylebone Road elevation,

reflecting the new use. While complementing the historic and architectural interest of the

existing buildings, the l ink will also create a dynamic entrance to the Business School.

A new teaching block will replace the 1960s section of the Council House to accommodate

six lecture theatres seating between 80 and 100 students.

2011

The Scottish Centre for Regenerative Medicine is the first large-scale, purpose-built facil ity of its kind

in the UK and the first laboratory building in Scotland to receive a BREEAM Excellent rating. The Centre

will develop new treatments for human diseases affecting the nervous system, l iver and other organs.

The building’s cantilevered structure is clad in clear and opaque curtain walling maximising views of the

surrounding landscape. Vertical aluminium fins minimise solar gain and provide a striking feature to the

elevations. The internal configuration concentrates daylight and natural ventilation on the spaces that will

benefit most. Write-up spaces and offices are located around the perimeter, surrounding concentric rings

of primary and secondary laboratories and smaller specialised rooms towards the centre of the building.

The plant has been located on a mezzanine level between the laboratory areas on the ground and first

floors to maximise efficiencies within these heavily serviced spaces.

SIDNEY STRINGER ACADEMY

2013

The uplifting environment of the new Sidney Stringer Academy seeks to raise the aspirations of its students

and staff, and create a sustainable school which recognises future issues around climate change.

Sheppard Robson developed a “stepping stone” proposal. This allows a scheme of a less dense footprint

to emerge, and fundamentally increase in scale from a two-storey sports hall to a three-storey building

stepping across the site, integrating a storey level change seamlessly within stepping stone blocks. The

scheme offers the opportunity of a flexible ribbon of classroom accommodation, where curriculum zones

could expand and contract in response to the Academy’s needs.

2013

Siemens Middle East Headquarters won the prestigious MIPIM Architectural Review Future Office Award

2012. The Headquarters has set a new standard for sustainable office buildings in the Middle East and

is anticipated to be one of the first buildings of its kind in the region to achieve LEED Platinum status.

The design began with a simple and over-arching ambition: to maximise efficiency and build more with

less. An interative process of traditional design and parametric analysis resulted in an efficient and

compact form that has reduced material and embodied carbon. Conceived as a box within a box,

a highly-insulated, airtight inner facade reduces thermal conductivity while a parametrically-optimised

lightweight aluminium external shading system minimises solar gain and maximises daylighting and

views from the building. The 4,500m² office floorplates achieve 90% efficiency and incorporate an

innovative post-tensioned flat slab with integrated void-forming technology.

WAINGELS COLLEGE


WOKINGHAM COUNTY COUNCIL

BERKSHIRE, UK

12,900m2

£18m

2011

The design of Waingels College is innovative in both form and construction. Its driving

concept is of the school as a community and its buildings as a vil lage of learning spaces.

Four separate buildings frame the heart of the school, a vil lage green. Three of the buildings

are pastoral bases or learning communities, while the fourth houses large, shared, communal

spaces such as the assembly and dining halls. Each base also has a smaller heart space for its

own community—a large staircase that can be used as a forum for the pupils. Avoiding long

dark corridors in favour of naturally l it , interconnected breakout areas, spaces are open and

flexible, encouraging cross-curricular interaction. The buildings were constructed using a cross-

laminated timber system as their structural base. This highly efficient envelope, combined with

the incorporation of renewable energy technologies and intell igent passive design, results in a

60% reduction in the school’s carbon emissions.

PRACTICE HISTORY

Phase V of Brunel University comprises seven new blocks providing student bedrooms, a conference accommodation block and a new arts centre. These robust buildings formed in brick and zinc complement the Sheppard Robson brutalist 1960s buildings they neighbour.

A simple zonal pattern of tightly planned buildings was gradually built up at Brunel University over a ten-year period. A central east-west pedestrian way links the buildings together and the central lecture block dominates the site with its 180-seat lecture theatre.

A 25,000m² headquarters and operational centre for Dun & Bradstreet was developed in the late 1980s. The focus for the working life of the building is a naturally-lit internal street l inking the four office buildings and their central services area.

In the early 1950s Sheppard Robson pioneered the use of concrete shell structures. Swan Hunter in Newcastle i l lustrates how this innovative solution both optimises the structure and achieves a l ight, open workspace.

The Helicon was one of London’s first sustainable buildings to combine retail and office space in a structure that is energy-efficient and economical to run. It was the defining project for the current generation of partners.

The Toyota/Lexus UK headquarters can be seen as a modern parallel of the Swan Hunter in Newcastle. The hybrid concrete and steel structure and mechanically assisted natural ventilation solution made this a multi award-winning building.

The Armani store at 1 The Avenue, completed in 2010, is one of seven Sheppard Robson buildings in the 89,000m2 Spinningfields office and retail scheme in the heart of Manchester. With retail , offices, nightclub and restaurant, the project represents next generation mixed-use architecture.

Wood Green Shopping City was a ground breaking integrated urban development. Two levels of retail space were designed beneath a residential development known as Sky City. The centre was designed to border and bridge a main road, blending high street and shopping centre.

A new science college and memorial to Sir Winston Churchil l , Sheppard Robson won the competition to design the new Churchil l College campus in Cambridge against a shortlist of 20 proposals in a l imited competition in 1958. The campus was completed seven years later.

The Jicwood Bungalow, designed in 1944, util ised innovative stressed timber skin from the aircraft industry and a prefabricated concept to deliver fast, efficient housing in response to the social needs of the time.

At the University of Manchester, the Alan Turing Building’s sustainable features include a roof structure acting as a roof level plant and suspension system for the photovoltaic array which produces over 40,000 kilowatts per annum – a saving of over 17,000kg of C02 every year.

The Lighthouse is the UK’s first net zero-carbon house to meet Level 6 (the highest level) of the Code for Sustainable Homes, the standard to which all new homes will be designed and constructed from 2016.
