UoS Wind Tunnel

University of Southampton

We were approached to design a new entrance which would raise the profile of the building, create a viewing gallery onto the running bed and providing more appropriate changing facilities, all within the width of the footpath. We have designed a simple steel framed box with curtain wall and aluminium rainscreen cladding. A two storey reception space will allow for past models to be hung from the ceiling. Also on the ground floor there is a toilet, kitchenette and office. Upstairs leads in to the wind tunnel building and the viewing gallery, with a parallel entrance for athletes from the changing and shower rooms.
