Knowledge Networks: London and the Ox-Cam Arc

Founded over 150 years ago, Cambridge Assessment operates and manages the University’s three exam boards and is one of the largest employers in the city. EPA won the competition to create a single HQ for their growing staff (previously spread across 11 buildings). Divided into two main blocks either side of a generous green open space and linked by a bridge-like building between the entrance and a private garden beyond, access to views, daylight and greenery were central to the project. The Client’s vision was to create a dynamic, attractive and healthy working environment promoting staff well-being and improving interaction and communication between different areas of the business.
