Northeastern University based out of Boston USA, acquired the New College of Humanities (NCH) in London in 2019 with a view to achieving University status and creating a launchpad for the expansion of Northeastern’s global network of campuses.
Works included a new dedicated entrance from the street for students to separate from other building users. Due to the densely occupied classrooms, supplemental ventilation and cooling was introduced. To integrate student transition between the spaces, 2x interconnecting staircases were introduced between the floors.
