A major upgrade and extension to Kingston University’s Knights Park Campus to provide over 10,000 sqm of refurbished creative space for Kingston School of Art.

Haworth Tompkins have delivered a transformative overhaul to Kingston University’s Knights Park Campus to provide over 10,000 sqm of refurbished creative space for Kingston School of Art to support the ethos of Thinking Through Making.

The existing campus had become seized up by ad-hoc modifications, a confusing layout and poor environmental performance. The project included a wide-ranging programme of repairs, extensions and upgrades to address these issues and ensure the campus excels for staff, students, businesses and the local community well into the future.
