Inverness enterprise and research centre completes
September 9 2016
Sheppard Robson have completed an enterprise and research facility as part of the expanding Inverness Campus on the outskirts of the city.An Lochran will facilitate collaboration between Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE), the University of Highlands and Islands (UHI), and Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC) who will all co-locate to the shared communal spaces.
Sheppard Robson partner James Dick said: “The external design concept is strongly influenced by the surrounding landscape and also embraces the design principle set out by HIE for the masterplan of the Campus.
“The space planning of the HIE wing accommodates staff covering a wide variety of functions coming together in the one building. All internal occupied spaces that require daylight and ventilation will achieve this naturally. The building successfully supports different types of working environment either for individuals or groups along with formal and informal meeting areas and a social space.”
