Kingston Uni building

Willmott Dixon has landed a 拢41m contract with Kingston University to build a new 鈥楾own House鈥� building.

The Town House will be a key feature of the university鈥檚 Penrhyn Road campus and the first phase of a wider 拢260m transformation programme for its entire estate.

The Grafton-designed building is destined to become the university鈥檚 鈥渇ront door鈥� and will include a learning resources centre with library, a covered courtyard designed for events and flexible learning areas for academic dance courses.

Construction will start in the spring, with completion scheduled for the start of the academic year in 2019.
