Oxford City Council has received an application from Níall Mclaughlin Architects for an academic building, student accommodation and study and social spaces.

The proposed site is less than half a mile away from the firm’s ongoing Univ North expansion of University College Oxford and would be used to house a new building for the South-East Asian Studies Centre, 130 student bedrooms and a shared, mixed-use pavilion building across 12,250 square metres of internal floor area.

A future timescale for the development, which is being delivered for Oxford University and Hertford College, is not yet known.

Hampshire-based Kim Wilkie is providing landscape architecture work on the project, with Carter Jonas acting as planning consultant and Smith & Wallwork as Structural Engineer.

Max Fordham has acted as both M&E and Sustainability Consultant, while the Quantity Surveyor for the project is Gleeds. CPC Project Services is acting as Project Manager. The heritage consultant on the project is Donald Insall Associates, while Bureau Veritas is the Principal Designer.

These plans have actually been in the works since 2018, going through a number changes across 11 pre-application meetings between the architects and the council which saw the number of new buildings “significantly reduced from the early stage concept as well as the removal of one of the departmental buildings entirely from the proposal”, Architects’ Journal reports.
