The Wave, Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Sheffield

OVERVIEW

Strategically located in the heart of the University’s Social Sciences campus, this award-winning 17,000m² building brings together five of the faculty’s departments under a single roof, and provides a range of world-class teaching, research, scientific and social facilities for use by students and staff across the faculty, as well as the local community.


Referred to as ‘The Wave’ for its flowing lines, rhythmic design and striking glazed façade, it is the University’s first net-zero in operation building. Designed by Sheffield-based HLM Architects, the unique building achieved the coveted BREEAM Outstanding Design Stage certificate - further supporting the University’s mission towards sustainability in both architecture and operation.
