City of Westminster College, London

hm991k special daybeds, hm83a and 83b star bench configuration

Project

The new flagship campus for City of Westminster College by Danish architects Schmidt Hammer Lassen has been designed to support new ways of teaching and learning. The 24,000m2 College provides much greater amounts of open learning spaces than typical colleges in the UK and holds state-of-the-art facilities for both students and staff. The building is designed to embrace interaction and diversity and allow students to learn from each other, both formally and informally.

Specified by Dyer, the atrium space features the dramatic hm83 bench, whilst the lobby has special versions of the hm991 daybed. The versatile hm55 seating can be found throughout the college, including café and seminar spaces.
