A product that derives from the success of Phase 1, Phase 2 of works at Northeastern University’s first London Campus was an exercise of enhancement and expansion to an international educational space. Workplace Creation’s mission was to create a diverse and inclusive campus facility that reinforces and promotes a global mindset of international collaboration and experiential learning. Imitating the style of a large American University from an older traditional English college campus presented a huge opportunity. The concept was purposely unique to the UK market, attracting predominantly international students.
Adopting clever use of space, materiality and freestanding furniture Workplace Creations created a cohesive design that modernised the traditional campus. Interactive materials such as beaten metal, mirrors and writable surfaces encourage a forward-thinking and kinetic environment, complimented with an expansive palette of colour, texture and graphics.
