The works had to be undertaken without preventing pedestrian movement around the site, taking restrictions imposed by the academic calendar into consideration. This required careful planning by the design team and contractor.
Paving designs for the events plaza were inspired by the existing paving ‘weave’ in front of the adjacent listed chapel. We liaised with English Heritage consultants over planter, hand rail and paving designs associated with the chapel.
We worked closely with an artist commissioned to produce a central sculpture for the events plaza and engineers to ensure the installation was fully integrated within the design.
We provided presentation plans for both public consultation and planning submission, as well as arboricultural method statements for carrying out work near to existing trees to discharge relevant planning conditions
