Imperial College was founded at South Kensington in 1888 and has since seen successive waves of redevelopment and growth. Following an extensive consultation, Allies and Morrison developed a masterplan that is not a single solution but rather, is a framework, delivered by a series of discrete projects. It seeks to transform the common spaces on the campus and enable future growth and change to come forward in a more coherent way. The masterplan sets out the obligations that current and future buildings have to the public realm and makes propositions for the location and nature of future internal common spaces.
