We are very proud that Lucy Cavendish College is among those shortlisted for the RIBA Journal's MacEwen Award! The MacEwen Award celebrates architecture with a greater purpose – responsible architecture that acts in the wider interest, whether that be to create a sense of place, engage with local issues, or tackle global challenges. Lucy Cavendish College is a student accommodation project that prioritises student wellbeing and accessibility. Working alongside R H Partnership Architects we provided MEP, sustainability, Passivhaus and acoustics services for the project. We supported the development of an overall sustainability vision for the college which takes a holistic approach, reducing energy use, encouraging responsible use of materials, supporting biodiversity, and reducing water use. The building uses electricity as its fuel source, with air-source heat pumps for both domestic hot water and space heating. You can read more about Lucy Cavendish College here: https://bit.ly/3PCQdzi
