Coventry City Council<\/a> has awarded planning permission for the Interdisciplinary Biomedical Research Building (IBRB) at the University of Warwick<\/a><\/h2>\n

The new building will bring together up to 300 biomedical researchers from the university\u2019s School of Life Sciences and Warwick Medical School.<\/p>\n

Hawkins\\Brown<\/a> has designed the flagship biomedical research building at the heart of the Gibbet Hill Campus which is anticipated to become a benchmark for quality campus-wide, with its location maintaining strong visual links to the main University of Warwick campus to the north.<\/p>\n

The building\u2019s entrance is located on the south elevation facing the campus centre. The surrounding landscape has been designed to work with the steep gradient of the site, integrating an existing cycle and pedestrian pathway linking the two University campuses.<\/p>\n

Plans for the five-storey building include a central \u2018lab village\u2019 core, with Hawkins\\Brown crafting an open layout to facilitate visual connections between internal spaces, initiating interaction and communication through chance encounters. Open-plan \u2018write-up\u2019 areas, office space and collaboration zones are located at the building\u2019s perimeter, benefiting from natural light and activating the fa\u00e7ade.<\/p>\n

A 400-seat lecture theatre, with a large public entrance, caf\u00e9 and exhibition space, promotes inclusivity through transparency and openness of space for all building users, visitors and the wider community.<\/p>\n

The building has been designed to work with the existing site context, utilizing the topography, views and links to woodland beyond. IBRB also aims to achieve BREEAM Excellent. Through working closely with University scientists and researchers, the building has been designed to allow for flexibility as science progresses, and \u2018future proofing\u2019 the building to achieve ongoing sustainability<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The \u00a354.3m research building is expected to open in 2020.<\/p>\n
