The Exeter Science Park Centre, designed by LHC Architecture + Urbanism, has been named as a finalist in the prestigious 2017 British Council of Offices (BCO) Awards for the South of England and South Wales, in the Commercial Workplace category. Opened in late 2015, the 30,000 sq. ft. Centre sits at the heart of Exeter Science Park and is home to high-growth businesses in the science, technology, and research and development (R&D) sectors. With a contemporary exterior, flexible working spaces, sustainable features, and high-quality finish, the building is a catalyst for investment in the city. The team behind the building, which includes LHC, Aecom, Kier Construction, and Exeter Science Park, is hoping that the Centre impresses the BCO judges when they visit in March in advance of the award ceremony in Bristol on 4 May. Chairman of LHC, John Baulch said: “The essence of the building is collaboration – bringing people together and giving them the opportunity to innovate – and we designed each aspect of the building with this in mind. “The Centre is a prime location for successful science-based businesses and we wanted to give them a space that inspired creativity and development, allowed the building to adapt to its tenants’ requirements, as well as being a beautiful place to work. We are really pleased that the building has been recognised as a finalist, and we expect stiff competition from many other impressive projects.”
