Scope Of Work
An environmentally responsible building facilitating world-leading research, Marshgate is part of the first phase of UCL East’s new campus.
Mace supported the client’s bold ambitions to deliver UCL East Marshgate as a ‘living lab’, centred around sustainability problem-solving and collaboration.
Set to complete in early 2023, the eight-floor block will open its doors to es and the wider community, with a ‘fluid zone’ on the ground and first-floor levels to welcome and effortlessly guide the through the building.
UCL’s vibrant new campus located in the heart of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, will pay homage to London’s greatest cultural and creative neighbouring institutions. With 34,000sqm of space comprising ground-breaking learning facilities, it will be a hub of creativity that unites multidisciplinary research.
Mace was appointed on the project in 2018 and focused on promoting green outcomes and environmental consciousness. Through design, construction and on-site operation, the project team have supported clean energy by keeping running costs and energy consumption to a minimum, ensuring technologies on-site are economically viable while minimising health and safety risks.
Functioning as a high-performing building, the development features key sustainable elements, from rainwater harvesting and underground cycle storage, to low energy LED lighting and highly efficient mechanical ventilation. The installation of heating and cooling technology will retain energy and optimise indoor air quality in a bid to support health and wellbeing.
