Open, light-filled spaces invite public engagement, while shared research, teaching and study environments make more effective use of space, ensuring Oxford's investment continues to advance learning and discovery for decades to come..''The Life and Mind Building’s stone facade features a sculpted brainwave—recorded from an Oxford researcher during the design process—turning two seconds of thought into a lasting symbol of discovery and the dialogue between life and mind..''As the University of Oxford's largest-ever construction project—and the UK’s largest laboratory designed to Passivhaus principles—the Life and Mind Building sets a new standard for efficiency and adaptability. Flexible laboratory platforms and shared facilities support multiple research types within a compact footprint, allowing the building to evolve over time while maximizing long-term value and sustainable performance.'Text from NBBJ website https://www.nbbj.com/work/university-of-oxford-life-and-mind-buildingThey say 'We are an ideas-driven design firm with an empathetic process.
