Christ’s College Cambridge Masterplan

The new Graduate Centre for Linacre College in Oxford provides a backdrop for student life, creating a new vibrant community that is well-connected and integrated into the city. The illustrative design seeks to balance the restoration and re purposing of the site’s historic buildings with the provision of state-of-the-art new spaces to create a landmark graduate centre for Linacre College.

At the centre of the site is a new quad around which the daily activities of the campus evolve. This space is animated by a central dining hall, and cafe and study centre. An existing mature oak tree acts as a focal point.
