Description

Forming the ‘gateway' and catalyst for the regeneration of the former University of North London Campus, the new Technology Tower provides 4000 square metres of facilities space. The double height glazed facade and lecture theatre at the base of the tower mark the entrance to the complex. The smooth sculptural form of the six floors of IT teaching above counterpoint the 1960's tower to which the new building is linked. A boardroom opens onto a roof terrace at the top.
