Creative Centre

Client York St. John University

Award RIBA Yorkshire Award 2023, RIBA Yorkshire Building of the Year Award 2023 (sponsored by EH Smith) and RIBA Yorkshire Client of the Year Award 2023.

The Creative Centre is a central pillar of York St John University’s ambitious growth plans. It brings together a diverse student population and combines creative arts learning, research, and practice in one building for the first time. An ingenious and responsible response to an otherwise unglamorous site, it helps to create a sense of enclosure to an emerging campus masterplan.
