By interrogating St Mary’s heavily constrained campuses, the masterplan unlocks development sites and identifies opportunities to support the planned growth of the University.
The masterplan establishes objectives and strategies that will frame and guide the estate’s development over the next decade.
Proposals include reviving the historic heart of the main campus, extensive refurbishment of existing buildings, and new high-quality architecture, landscape, and public realm. These have been developed in close collaboration with the London Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames council and informed by an extensive consultation process.
Significant stakeholders were engaged, including the Harlequin F.C. and Strawberry Hill House & Garden, to consider partnering opportunities and shared facilities.
This project is part of several immediate improvement projects that St Mary’s has commissioned Useful Studio for, including the refurbishment of the main reception and design of the public plaza.
