Art & Design: Our Facilities

A good working environment is always important, and never more so than when work combines the creative and technical.

Our large, open-plan first year studios are a hive of activity, the perfect place to experiment and explore before occupying high quality individual workspaces, available from second year onwards.

Our fully equipped workshops for traditional crafts and digital technologies are complemented by access to facilities at other parts of the University, including the Human Performance Lab in Health & Social Care.

Elsewhere, our lively and inspiring University campus offers a range of massive spaces for large group projects.

A new £1 million centre, the Centre for Design and Innovation (C4DI), was launched in 2009 to help companies gain a competitive edge through the application of design to their products and services.
