RHP WINS CONSENT
FOR CHEMISTRY OF HEALTH BUILDING R H Partnership has won planning consent for the Chemistry of Health, a new high- priority building for the Department of Chemistry at the University of Cambridge. The £22 million development is scheduled to commence in 2016 and complete by 2017, and will focus on the study of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinsons and Alzheimers, among others.
NEW ART GALLERY BY CARUSO ST JOHN OPENS TO THE PUBLIC The Heong Gallery for Downing College opened on 6 February. Designed by Caruso St John Architects and dedicated to modern and contemporary art, it transforms a maintenance building and creates a new public space from a former service yard. Inspired in part by Kettles Yard in Cambridge, the new wing utilises a simple palette of stone, concrete and oak.
