The project transforms a post-industrial site into an integrated healthcare campus comprising three interconnected buildings: the Campus Life Hub, the Teaching Hub, and the Practical Training Hub. The architectural concept respects the island's industrial heritage while establishing a forward-looking medical education environment, breaking down the 44,400m² programme into a human-scaled composition that maintains visual permeability at street level.

The buildings share a common architectural language while serving distinct functions. A robust mineral plinth anchors the complex, referencing the site's industrial past, while the upper volumes feature lighter expressions in wood and aluminium. This material strategy creates a natural patina that evolves gracefully over time. The construction incorporates significant timber elements, particularly in the superstructure, which contributes to the project's carbon reduction targets.

A distinctive 'Flight Deck' elevated walkway connects the buildings at first-floor level, allowing seamless circulation while preserving ground-level permeability. Interior spaces prioritise flexibility through modular layouts and movable partitions, enabling adaptation to evolving pedagogical approaches.

Nature-friendly

The landscape design incorporates a comprehensive green infrastructure strategy, featuring vegetated terraces and green roofs, which create graduated transitions between public and private spaces while enhancing microclimatic conditions.

Sustainability principles are integrated into the design through bioclimatic strategies, including tailored solar protections and hybrid ventilation systems. The project achieves E3C2 certification through rigorous carbon reduction strategies, extensive use of bio-sourced materials, and prioritization of low-carbon transportation through integrated cycling infrastructure housing 1,650 bicycles.
