New Build
Darkroom , Unit 8, Dales Brewery , Gwydir Street , CAMBRIDGE , Cambridgeshire , CB1 2LJ
The Wolfson Building was designed by David Roberts in 1967 as an addirion to the main site, and forms 40 flats providing self-contained family accommodation for graduate students. This project forms a major revisiting of the building as the centrepiece of a new graduate precint for the college. The project seeks to introduce a generosity to the flats to make them more suitable for contemporary needs, extending the available space while breaking down some of the cellular divisions, address failings in the building fabric, and improve the energy efficiency and comfort. The building process has grown from the creation of a prototype flat, used to test the approach and discuss the potential of the project with the college. The main project is now on site, with a value of £3.4m.
