Future

How can we make long-term choices that keep campus resilient and sustainable?

While we can’t predict exactly what the future holds, we can design a space that allows us to be flexible and ready for new opportunities.

Supporting climate resilience

Green spaces on campus can enhance our wellbeing – and our climate resilience. They help cool the campus, manage heavy rain, support wildlife and make everyday walks and cycle routes more enjoyable.

Potential for adaptability

• Structure, including floor to floor heights and column grid
• Facades
• Age and heritage significance
• Original function and current use
• Condition

Pedestrian priority

Today, vehicles can access the whole campus. Taxis often cut through the campus as a shortcut!

If vehicular access was more carefully managed to create a mostly pedestrian campus core, it could transform streets into spaces where people can socialise, exchange and enjoy.
