Goldsmiths Enterprise Hub is conceived as a shared gateway between the university campus and the local community. The existing Victorian building will be refurbished and extended to create a flexible working hub. The project will use sustainably sourced timber to transform the existing structure. Timber will also be used as an aesthetic element to create thoughtful and sensitive architectural interventions. Softwood timber floors have been used throughout the main terrace structure in lieu of in situ concrete. The new build pavilion element is to be a full timber structure consisting of glulam beams and columns, with softwood joists where applicable.
