The scheme covers 11,000 sq m

The structure utilises a hybrid timber-concrete composite design, which is intended to significantly reduce embodied carbon while maintaining functional flexibility for laboratory and office spaces.

Others working on the deal include M&E engineer Buro Happold, structural engineer Webb Yates as well as project manager Bidwells and cost manager CB3.
