Collaboration and Informal Learning
Located within the Prison Quarter, Building 2 will be a new academic and research facility promoting collaboration and social learning, and will be home to the KM EDGE Hub. The building shape references the visual connection from St Martin’s Church to Canterbury Cathedral over St Augustine’s Abbey, creating a new heart to North Holmes Campus and will provide direct links between the University’s key buildings.
The building footprint sits within a complex landscape allowing the creation of a largely concealed (though naturally ventilated) lower ground floor car park, over which sits the new public square.
