University of Huddersfield

The £30 million stunningly dramatic architect designed Barbara Hepworth Building for the University of Huddersfield houses the School of Art, Design and Architecture.

Inspired by the ancient art of origami, AHR developed the iconic cantilevered building, at the heart of which features a grand atrium and staircase and has achieved BREEAM 'Excellent' status. Phoenix Flooring were tasked with installing ceramic tiling to the atrium and vinyl flooring in a LaserJet design around the large atrium area from Polyflor.
