This striking student residence in the middle of Liverpool’s Knowledge Quarter contains 277 Bedrooms in 106 apartments. The apartments include single person Studios, 2 Bedroom, 3 Bedroom, 4 Bedroom with a few 5 Bedroom Apartments. Ideally situated for students, it lies very close to the heart of both Liverpool University and Liverpool John Moore’s University. It is immediately adjacent to other student accommodation including Plato House and the grade II listed St Andrews Gardens. The scheme comprises an 8-storey building with its main elevations on to Copperas Hill, Moor Place and Marquis Street, with the top two floors recessed. Largely in red brick, but with a different, and lighter brick, for the top two floors, the proposal responds to the tones and textures in the area, with the older, historic core buildings generally of brick construction, and more contemporary buildings displaying a variety of materials, include metal cladding. The deeply recessed fenestration placed within a subtly patterned brickwork façade, provides an image of strength and dynamism through its depth and constantly changing shadowing. All apartments are light and spacious and many offer spectacular views across the City and the River Mersey. There is an attractive courtyard offering precious quiet, amenity space amongst delightful planting for sitting and relaxation. Secure internal cycle storage is provided for cycle users.
