Aston University

OVERVIEW


The Project


Aston University Student Union at the heart of the University’s campus has seen a £6.5m investment.

 

The new, two-story building, home to over 100 student clubs and societies, acts as the social hub for the 13000+ students at the university & replaces the old 1960’s Building.

 

The Universities brief was to incorporate the local area into the project using images of Birmingham City Skyline.

 

The Challenge

 

Offer a full height cubicle system, suitable for the environment and to a specification befittng the digital imagery.

 

Digitally render images onto Laminate and apply to the façade of the full height system.

Manage the precise fabrication process through the factory.

 

The Solution

 

Excelsior’s Flush 30 Cubicle System encompasses a rebated aluminium frame to the doors and pilasters. The aluminium edge detail provides a robust trim and looks innovative within this modern building, an unrivalled system within the washroom market.


The images, supplied by the client were digitally rendered onto laminate by Formica Younique and applied to the façade of a full height Flush system.


Max McLoughlin, CEO of the Student Union comments: ‘We want the building to make students feel proud to be at Aston University. From a design perspective, we wanted the students to feel fully immersed in life on campus & we are very happy with the result’.
