Following planning approval for Stapleton House, an 862-bed student accommodation for the Unite Group and London Metropolitan University, Ubu Design are now busy drawing up the detailed external designs.

Comprising ten stories, the development has been designed to help meet the future housing needs of LMU students and regenerate the local area. Commercial units will be available for local businesses on the ground floor, with student flats and studios above.

Sympathetic to its mixed needs, the courtyard and roof terrace external design will provide a series of usable and engaging spaces conducive to passive recreation, study, social interaction and rest. Breakout spaces providing respite from the busy Holloway Road also feature within the design.
