The building was designed and completed by renowned architect, AUB alumnus and Honorary Fellow, Professor Sir Peter Cook RA and his office CRAB (Cook Robotham Architectural Bureau). This distinctive new building is based on a steel monocoque structure.
There are no straight lines anywhere and providing a consistent, reliable insulating layer over an interior surface crossed and re-crossed with ribs and beams could only be achieved with a sprayed product. Isotech Sprayfoam Ltd was recommended to main contractor Morgan Sindall as approved installers of material manufacturer BASF’s BBA (British Board of Agrement) Certificated Walltite and Elastospray closed cell sprayed in-situ polyurethane foam insulation systems.
