This striking new building has been thoughtfully designed to sensitively blend with and complement the surrounding architecture within the historic Radcliffe Observatory Quarter.
The four-storey, 700 m² building will provide a permanent home for the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development. Offering six tutor rooms, a seminar room, boardroom, flexible event hall, roof terrace and research rooms, the building will create a vibrant and collaborative academic environment.

Sustainability is central to the project, with Passivhaus principles incorporated to deliver a Net Zero carbon building in operation.
