Fred led the team at PLP/Architecture coordinated in the task of designing two buildings at the college’s new White City Campus – 88 Wood Street, a 35-storey residential tall building and the iHub – a 20,000m² life sciences incubator.
The building is organised around a principal lab-enabled 19.5m deep wing on the A40. Here, the space is served by cores to the east and west freeing up a generous and flexible volume. A lower wing of dry lab and office space frames an entrance atrium with views towards the landscaped square at the heart of Imperial West.
