The University of Glasgow is committed to enhancing the student experience through the built environment on its Gilmourhill Campus. Described as an 'urban palazzo' ... our new accommodation on Church Street will deliver high-quality residential living that enriches the learning journey.
The development is expected to support local businesses, enhance safety by realising a 24/7 campus vision, and integrate with the existing architectural character of the location.
The design has a porous ground floor that seeks to welcome the public and provide access to courtyard green spaces.
Overall the project provides for circa 460 student rooms in various cluster and studio configurations.
Student wellbeing is a key focus in the design of the environment.
The development completes an entire urban block responding to the locations different street conditions.
The University of Glasgow is set within the stunning townscape of Glasgow's West End and directly adjacent to the iconic Kelvingrove Art Galleries and Park.
