Campus Reimagined
Covered Seating in Outdoor Spaces
Brief
Creating more covered outdoor areas is one of the six ‘mini projects’ that were chosen by students and staff in a public vote in June 2025.
The vote followed hundreds of suggestions received through the Campus Reimagined Live event in February of the same year.
Over 3500 people voted and the winning projects all centre around spaces to meet, eat and relax.

Further information
Increasing the number of areas that people can sit outdoors all year round was a popular suggestion for many.
The campus boasts a wealth of green spaces which are very well used in the warmer months and create a welcoming and collaborative environment.
This project will take account of seating already available and research which areas of campus are most popular for sitting outside.
Project timeline
The works began in August 2025 and are due for completion in 2026.
