The 5,770m\u00b2 Young\u2019s Court scheme is the 400-year-old college\u2019s most significant development in more than a century, creating a new social hub\/caf\u00e9, teaching spaces and 50 student bedrooms. The practice, which won the 2012 RIBA Stirling Prize for its Sainsbury Laboratory half a mile away, has also delivered a college bar and events space within a repurposed service wing.<\/p>\n

The project sits on land previously used mainly for car parking at the southern perimeter of the college in Park Terrace. It was bought for the expansion project along with the neighbouring Grade II-listed Furness Lodge, a former Catholic schoolhouse.<\/p>\n

The practice\u2019s scheme combines new build and refurbishment and is based around landscaped courts. New College Court provides 50 additional student rooms enabling the college to meet its ambition to accommodate all undergraduate students onsite. The teaching facilities are at Furness Lodge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to Stanton Williams, the development is \u2018intricately embedded\u2019 into the existing network of collegial spaces and has created \u2018intimate courtyards and gardens\u2019, linked by landscaped courts and passageways.<\/p>\n

The practice said: \u2018The new buildings are conceived as a dialogue between old and new, knitting together existing spaces and adding a new layer to the historic evolution of Emmanuel\u2019s 400-year-old collegiate setting.\u2019<\/p>\n

The design team included Bradley-Hole Schoenaich Landscape Architects and the project also features newly commissioned, site-specific artworks by Lucy Skaer, Cardozo Kindersley Workshop and Susanna Heron.<\/p>\n

Emmanuel College occupies extensive grounds in the Cambridge Central Conservation Area, with a range of buildings dating back to Medieval times. The campus is characterised by a series of interlinked formal and informal courts and landscaped spaces, providing a sheltered environment in the heart of the city.<\/p>\n

Stanton Williams was given the thumbs-up for its new communal space at the college in 2020.<\/p>\n

Client\u2019s view<\/h3>\n

This project is transformational. It is on a scale not undertaken by the college since the completion of North Court in 1914 and provides new opportunities for us to meet needs that we have been unable properly to address for many years.
